Great race!!!
You've set some challenging goals for yourself and you are meeting them. With FM and RA and that weight loss - I am delighted for you that you had such a good race.
I too, love cool cloudy weather.
Can't wait to hear about your next race.

Thanks, all. Re wearing those socks in the ice bath: I was the kind of little kid who would cry when her feet and hands got too cold in the repellent Albany NY winters I grew up in. I KNEW I had to keep my toes from feeling the full wrath of the ice cubes if I was ever going to make that ice bath work.
AND....take heart, Jessica--someone else cleans that bathroom twice a month! Otherwise it wouldn't look nearly that clean, you may be sure. Lake Padden next year? I will want to hear how it goes next weekend.
Mimi, the HR monitor was meant to help me keep my pace slow enough so that I wouldn't run out of cardio capacity on the run too early. It did its job. I have a long way to go to build a real running base, so...I'm ready to work on.
I love triathlon. I love triathlon training. I really do. Sick sick sick.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

Wonderful!
Great race and race report. Good for you!
I hope to be giving a race report after my FIRST Tri in Sept.
It is in Florida and hot as hades. I am not sure I'll need an ice bath for the muscles soreness...but just to relieve myself from the heat.
Again, congrats and thanks for sharing the report and pictures!
