Slowly but surely, I will master my fear of open water swimming! Started out freestyle & felt good but started to breathe funky. Breaststroke felt odd too because I didn't want to put my face in the water. :( sidestroke...

Because I suck at the swim, I have to basically make up lost time on the bike...which is a good thing because I'm pretty speedy! I passed a ton of people. This one chick told me I was flying, lol. :) headwind was present and the roads sucked...and a bunch of people seemed to ride in the middle of the road the entire time, so passing was tricky here and there.

Speedy run! All-out sprint at end to pass a few more people! ;) I do believe this is an all-time PR for 5k!
