Well, if triathlon isn't just the coolest thing there is, I don't know what is! Did my 1st race last Sunday, and it was way too much fun. What a great group of humans. The bonus was the Michellie Jones competed (murderd everyone) and boy was that fun to watch. I was in wave 9, so I got a front row view of her 8-minute swim. I want to be her when I grow up! (Going to be tough since I'm 5 years older than she is)
Anyway, I broke all my perosnal goals, and finished 3 minutes faster than I expected. Ended up 626 out of 1500. Had I not stopped to read War and Peace in transition, I would have killed my goals. I know you are a bunch of superhumans, but I want to throw my times out anyway to see what you think. Swim: 14:11 (I was pertty happy and surprised w/ that - and I didn't freak out! Hubby said I came out of the water 4th or 5th in my wave) Bike: 45:06, 19.2 mph, and run: 31:31. Have to move my slow a#$ faster. I heard running hills is good? Any advice is appreciated and thanks for the encouragemewnt over the last couple weeks!

PS: Total time 1:38:42
