I’ve been doing the local Oly here for 14 years. It’s called the Kiawah Olympic Tri. I’ve been cursed with mechanicals on the bike, shoe issues, and even had run-ins with sea creatures. Today I broke the curse and had the best Oly of my life. I got totally anal about the details of this race and visuallized a race with no glitches. It worked! I went 2:53:45. That may sound lackluster to many of you, but it is a sign of better things to come. Yay!!!
Nice job!
Way to visualize the outcome.
Thanks guys. I had maps of the couse layed out in my study and was considering every minute detail. I was trying to picture the race as though I was there every day for two weeks before the big day. The bike just melted away. Instead of riding with trepidation of what was gong to happen to me I rode thinking about what I was going to do to the course. I also smoked my brother by nearly half an hour. I expected to come in about five minutes ahead. He got seasick from the rolling waves.
