I managed to complete the capital of Texas olympic distance tri! It was a blast. I was in the water for a long, long time but stilll managed to finish up! I am a changed person.... bring it on!
Next stop South Padre in October!

Good for you babz! I am thinking about doing an Olympic Distance in 5 weeks.

Did you train much harder than for a Sprint? Our group's coach has more confidence in me than I do and said based on my training, it will only be a matter of getting sufficient fuel.

Sorry to hijack your thread. Congrats again!

I also used to struggle with the swim, a workshop with total immersion has changed that I can do 1000 meter in 15 minutes or less consistently. I highly recommend looking into their program, not only do I move faster but swimming is so much easier I come out of the water fresh and relaxed, where as before I was typically exhausted out of the water and recovered on the bike. It does pay off -
