American Triple T Race # 3 - TriathlonOlympic

swim was done after the bike....wasnt many in there since I am so slow on the bike but i enjoyed it all. There were some cold spots that actually felt wonderful. I had a couple of cramps in my foot but kicked them out and then a little bit in the calf before exiting but it was fine. Swim time again about 4 min slower...its because the course was too long! :)

this transition was from bike to run and since i didnt wear a wetsuit all i had to do it take off my helmet and head to the water.

here we get out of the water to get running stuff together

run was alittle slower then last year...bugs were really bad and the heat and humidity was really high

went to my folks and showered and ate spaghetti and texas toast. Actually slept pretty well this evening


So at the start of this race we are in transition and the guy beside starts talking about the blood on his bike and i asked what happened and see his leg...well he slipped on the gravel going up Thompson Hill in this morning race....i even warned the fool about it. I so bad wanted to say I told you so....so then he starts talking about this bike leg for this race and how it couldnt be that tough of a climb....well he says its not as steep as Thompson so it couldnt be that bad...so I told him even though its not as steep the darn thing goes on for over 2miles and that is the second climb...the first one is probably a mile itself. But he didnt believe me.....funny thing I didnt see him at all Sunday morning race? Hmmmmm wonder where he went?
