That's awesome Pinkychique! Congrats on not only placing first but taking four minutes off your time! How many more races do you have scheduled this season. What a great way to start out.
I don't want to start thread drift at all but I had to mention that I was born in Albuquerque and miss it so much. I bet the weather is incredible right now!

First Tri of the Season
To disable ads, please log-in.
I'm so pleased with my time and my placing!
I placed first overall, in 1:12, the supposed distances are 5k run, 25k bike, 500m swim, though I think the bike was a bit longer than that, but silly me I forgot to reset my computer before the race
A small race, but it looks good on my resume! Collegiate Nationals here I come!
Also, took 4 minutes off of my time at this race from last year

Thank you! My training has been going fairly well, so I was expecting at least some time to be taken off, didn't expect 4 minutes

The weather is beautiful! I hope I don't ever have to live elsewhere, I like being able to ride outdoors during the winter months. I bet you don't miss the springtime wind, right?? We've been having days of 20+ mph winds with gusts of like 30+. No riding those days!
