It wasn't as fun as the Dirty Dash, but I did my last triathlon of the year this weekend.
I did a lot of zig-zagging in the swim. It was dark and gloomy and I have very tinted coggles, and there were only 4 bouys for the whole 1500 meters. I could not see at all were I was guing unless I completely stopped swimming. A couple times someone in a kayak had to tell me that I was off course. Once I swan into the kayak that just told me that I was off course. Despite all of this I finished in 33rd place in the swim of 250 people, 27:04. I suspected that I was doing quite poorly at this point, especially since I was passed by a girl that started 4 minutes after me.
Bike was 18th overall at 21.4 MPH.
I did my fastest run of the year in 37:17. I beat everyone else in the run by almost 2 minutes.
Overall I finished 4th, just 24 seconds behind 3rd place. (10 minutes behind 1st place).

Excellent job.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lot of fun. You do have to watch out for those girls though.
