I've been training for 6 months with the intent to do a 70.3 later this year. Race this weekend was just a sprint. It wasn't like some special accomplishment to complete it or anything. But it was the first time I actually got to do a full triathlon. I've done the bike rides, done the road races, etc.. I was looking forward to everything together. I had goals laid out from the beginning that were quite lofty for me and I really felt like I had a chance to meet them tomorrow. I've come a long way and was really excited to test myself. I'm setting out my transition stuff on a towel this afternoon, checking off to make sure I have everything and get the email that the race is officially cancelled due to weather. Such a let down.
I've got a few races I'm thinking of doing, but the next one I'm actually scheduled for isn't for a few months. I'm just so frustrated right now.
How do you guys deal with these type of things when it's your "A" race. I think I'm taking a day or two off and having a few drinks tonight.
