Congratulations! I'm impressed you got out there and did it despite discovering the swim was going to be harder than you thought. I understand completely about the pics. DH took a bunch at my event and I don't ever want to look at half of them again, I look so terrible. You look great in the ones you posted!

The best part about going up hills is riding back down!

Thank you
I am learning what I did wrong in the swim. My quads were burning after and that's a huge sign that I am kicking wrong. I also mostly forgot to rotate.
The tri this sunday has only 1/4 mile swim. I guess I'm still trying to go easy on exercise with back-to-back tri's so I've been trying to swim and do some easy runs. Will take the bike out tomorrow for an easy 25 mile ride. I think I'll go up to the pool though and work on swimming again. As long as I don't fatigue myself, working on form can only help for sunday.
Just have to get that "kick from the hips" thing down without locking up my legs. Easier said than done!
And yeah, I think I'm addicted. Am already thinking if I join USAT how much I can save by not getting day licenses.
