    Hey, great report! Thanks for writing it all out...for someone who has never done a Tri, I enjoyed seeing your transition times, too. I am a big chicken, and I know deep down in a place I don't admit yet, that one day I am going to try a Tri. So, I read these reports and it feeds the scary little thoughts I have!

    Could you tell me what distances the swim, bike & run were?

    Thanks for the report! Post more!

    That is great news about dropping time and passing people! It's good to know that you felt less stress with your second tri, I'm hoping the same is true for me and my second tri.

    I don't think your run time is too bad, I'm a slow runner too though so I can comiserate. Plus, those cramps couldn't have helped at all.

    Way to go Krys! 2 tris under your belt and good improvement to show for it.
    I think your run times are just fine - come run with me and you will feel like a track start

    Keep up the GREAT work and once again thanks for the report.

    AND starfish if I can do one anyone can do one


    It's about the journey and being in the moment, not about the destination

    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    Thanks Ladies!!!

    Starfish: The swim was 750 meters, bike 13.1miles, and run 5k.

    And thanks you all made me feel alot better about my run! I work with all guys and we all train for the triathlons, I beat there time in both the swim and the bike but they all teased me because I was so slow in the run (all light hearted of course) But sometimes I forget that I am not racing against them any ways. haha and it probably doesn't help the fact that they are all at least a foot taller than me at least some more, and so their strides are about twice of mine.. so over all I did just fine! thanks again ladies!
