CAMTRI championships (doesn't that sound FANCYDANCY?) dunno honestly. Literally the first long distance triathlon in Cuba. Only 90 maybe in the long (including relays) and only 3 women so it would have been hard not to finish in the "money". :)

some pictures of the tri part...

gear bags


breakfast


swim was gonna be cold


holy fuck! First???? GOT to get a foto!


the run


finish!


omfg awards ceremony....TV interview


and...omFG. still cannot believe. surreal...


now, where else in the world can a 54 yo do a (albeit long, 4.2 km swim, 45km run, but still) a race with only 3 other women and come in first? we all remarked to each other at the start - all we have to do is finish! terminar es ganar! but still....never in a million years...

i'm actually in negotiations for the story (a pinch isn't going to work here, i'm going to need a slap upside my head to keep it from popping from the ego :)) so holding off on it for now in the event i am precluded from posting it.

i got panamercian champion gold medallion, triathlon champion medallion, trophy, sculpture and art work. here is a peek...
(looks like we're going for it here :))
