My first Triathlon experience was very exciting! I had a blast doing it and definitely plan on doing it again!
The time goal I set for this particular race was 1 hour, 30 minutes. My finish time was 1 hour 24 minutes so I was stoked!
My stats:
Overall: 141/500
My Age group: 26/90
The swim leg (1/4 mile) was 8 min, 33 secs. I placed 36th overall and 9th in my age group! This was my best leg.
The bike leg (10 miles) was 41 minutes, 27 secs.
The run leg (3 miles) was 29 minutes, 39 seconds.

| Sam had to make an emergency visit to the bathroom with Jocelyn, so he was unable to get pictures of me during the swim. But we can pretend one of those people from a different wave is me right? |

| Just finished the bike leg, headed to my transition spot to prepare for the run |
 |
| Here I am thinking, "Why did I try sprinting back there? I should have waited until I could actually see the finish line!" |
 |
| And the finish! |
 |
| I wouldn't have done this race if my friend Ruth hadn't convinced me to! |
 |
| Trying to re-hydrate. The last 30 minutes of the race was HOT! |
 |
| The girls were patient enough (although Daddy thinks this is debatable) to wait until the race was over to play in the lake |

Yeah Carrie! I'm so glad you had fun, I really have enjoyed the two I have done. Wunder Woman has an Olympic length distance that I'm considering for next year. Are you in? :-)
