Competed in the Brewhouse Triathlon today. It was damn fun.
To sum up how I did, I came up with this rhyme in the car on the drive home:
I wasn't fast, but I surely wasn't last.I ended up coming in towards the
middle-end (closer towards the end of the pack, but not bad for my first time.)
I ended up deciding to do the long course, which is just
shy of olympic distance. by 5 mi bike, and about a mile run. I think they should've just
made it a bit longer, to meet the reqs but it was still a damn fun race.
I need.... NEED to work on my run... though I think my time doesn't reflect what I'm capable of,
because I accidentally let myself get a bit dehydrated, so I started getting REALLY bad
abdominal cramps at about mile 1 of the run.... which if you have ever had them.. you know it sucks, which made my run
really painful until mile 3(when they finally ended because I kept drinking water to try to rehydrate).... so...
live, learn, improve and eventually kick some ass.
