Today I completed my first triathlon... the sprint distance (750 meter swim, 12 mile bike, 3.1 mile run). The purpose of this race was to aid my preparation for a longer triathlon by giving practice swimming in open water with a group of people and to figure out really how the transition work.
There is nothing overly exciting to report, other than everything went well and as planned.
I don't know my official chip time, but I think i finished in just under 2 hours (which was my goal). It was exciting to be a part of the event with other people.
Yes, I have a lot more training to do before i'm anywhere near ready for the crazy long one i signed up for not really knowing what I was getting myself into, but i'm excited to continue pursuing this life goal.
This was my transition area (before i straightened up a bit)... swim cap and goggles, bike helmet with sunglasses, bike shoe, running shoes, etc.
And of course, a pair of Chacos! :) Awesome job, Sarah Bri.
