The day was beautiful. Water was nice 65. I had a decent swim(only 2nd time wearing my wetsuit) and bike was okay , but run was blah. I started having some hip issues right out of the gate, which I have only experienced on my marathons towards the end. I could tell in the last 3 miles of bike it felt weird. Needless to say, but ended up walking about 3/4 of a mile. UGH!

here are the numbers.

S - 1/2mile - 16:43
T1 - 5:14
B - 14.5miles - 52:07
T2 - 2:25
R - 4.5miles - 47:44

I had fun though. I guess that's whats the most important part. I'm not shooting podiums anyways

Congrats! And yeah, having fun is the most important. And you will learn something new from every race. Maybe do some more brick training to see if the hip issues repeat or improve.

Six years ago I was 44 years old and weighed 260+ pounds. If anybody had suggested to me that at age 50 I would complete a sprint-length triathlon I would have rolled my eyes and grabbed a doughnut!

After I left the running store, I couldn't stop thinking about the sprint tri and how much of a challenge it would be for me. So instead of joining a gym, I started riding my bike and it felt great.

I couldn’t help but feel that the race had beaten me. Perhaps duathlons were more for me? No, I was more determined than ever to succeed. I was determined to get on top of my swimming.
