First Race this Season
To disable ads, please log-in.
I did a duathlon on Saturday, it was awesome. I didn't wear a watch, it was just a training race, I just wanted to see how it felt. The timing company had messed up my time, at 27 hrs, 37 min, 41 sec
. It was a sprint distance. While they were handing out awards, I went to the van and asked them to figure it out. Glad I went then, I place 1st in my division, and 3rd in my age group. Very pleased.

Yes, I am still running for another 4 hours, I'll let you know how I do LOL! Sadly, it was a very small event, so there are no pic's. I had decided to do it the night before and DH had to help a buddy move.
ThanksLast edited by JenLeath; 05-27-2007 at 06:33 AM.
