Right,
I participated in the BRW corporate Tri series here yesterday and had a bit of fun...(with an oops..)
Each company could enter teams of 3 with each doing one leg or teams of three doing a whole sprint tri each. I chose to do a whole sprint tri.
The weather was boooooteaful yesterday, not too hot though!! Admittedly i did forget sunscreen..my first oops. I expected the conditions to be smooth yet a bit windy.
On my leg, i had a horrible swim. I was freaked out by the waves, which were medium due to the wind and had to swim on my side plus breast stroke plus freestyle most of the 400m's. I swallowed more of the lovely swan river & had a nice dirt goatee upon exiting the water. (Same location as the city of perth tri but no cuts this time.)
The bike leg. I figured out today that i cheated...i only did 5km's istead of 10k. I didn't look at my odometer when i neared the transition..really. Because I couldn't hear the announcer at the beginning I didn't know it was two laps!!!OOps..:o
I felt pretty good on the run although i started off a bit slow. At the turnaround point I decided to mozy my little legs & push myself. My run time was 20min for a 4km run. (when we last did a timed run during training, i did 4km in 22min.)
I'll post a pic of my dirt goatee when i figure out where my dear stored them on the puter.
