    Congratulations!
    Great race report. I'd be relentless on myself about the 4 second stop for water...I think it's natural.
    Really great job, and if you hadn't stopped, you might've slowed down in the end anyway

    Thanks for all the kind words ladies!

    I just want to say... if I could get better and faster... ANYONE can!

    That 8:17 mm on the run came from a girl who was doing walk/run sessions in the 11 mm mile range!

    I got a stress fracture at my marathon in May and I think it was a blessing! I took 6 weeks off and I came back... and it's like I'm a runner now. Something flipped in my head. I have a focus now on the run that I didn't have before.

    Now, I still worry about injury from running- I'm paranoid about it... because I have dealt with getting injured year after year.

    So yeah... it only took me 5 years to get decent at this tri stuff... HA!

    My friend said that next year I need to ditch the distance stuff and focus on the short stuff. He might have a point!

    I'm eyeing my next race and thinking about how I can trim off time. First thing I need is some shoe laces that I do not tie. That killed me in T2 on this last race. The socks took time too, but I won't ditch those.
