Total unofficial time: 3:22:05! I placed 5th in Athenas. See race report! Additional note: If you double my time for the sprint back in May on the same course, you get 3:26:38. So I beat that by over 4 min. Cool.

this is kindof a dismal pace. granted, it was all hills. but still... i guess i wasn't very focused.

i saw a red fox--crossed the road right in front of me, looked at me, then turned around and headed back to the field.

guessing on the time. felt good.

My Predictions 1500 m swim: 32:00 to 40:00 T1: 2:00 to 4:00 25 mile bike: 1:28:00 to 1:47:00 T2: 1:30 to 3:00 6.2 mile run: 1:08:12 to 1:20:36 Total: 3 hrs 12 min to 3 hrs 55 min So I should be able to finish in under 4 hours, even with some problems. Most likely time I think is: 3:32:00. In any case, I will be towards the back of the pack. But the best case scenario could place me in the Athena group. I won't hold my breath. I should be working. Bad Rebecca.
