Triathlon (olympic) number two

[tribogota]

The kay to the shore, 1600m, but they called it 1500, cross current most of the time, waves, finally learned to breathe only on the side the waves were not coming to not drink so much seawater. 29 minutes! good time! Bike, straight back and forth, but with sharp turn abouts, and sudden tropical rains, causing several accidents. Good time, was still first in my group. Started the run, along the boardwalk on brick, very very uncomfortable, you could feel each step. Was passed by most of the age group category women by the end of the first circuit. It was hot and humid, but next to the beautiful crystalline sea...so not so bad, my best time yet, 2:50 (last year, same race, did 3:15). Really enjoyed the swim, got distracted by beautiful fish, enjoyed the bike, and wondered why the heck I do triathlons during the run....

Hey congrats & *clap* *clap* for a job well done.

What fishies did you see on the swim & were they the man eating kind?

When is your next event?

Well done!

The location looks lovely - I'm going to be doing my first Olympic dist off the western coast of Ireland soon and I really wish I was doing it somewhere like that instead.
