good ride for the training i have done, had to back off a bit, power was there, endurance was off
Run
51m 28s
6.20 miles
08m 18s /Mi
this run was much better, i actually ran about 4/10's of a mile extra due to some bad infor i got on the course and the turn for finish. It probably cost me 4 minutes and a top 10. I should have known better or followed my instinct.
Swim
24m 58s
1400.00 meters
01m 46s /100 meters
swim, heavy chop and waves, this swim was EPIC!!!!
2h 24m 04s
results 1/12 Clydesdale and 17/173 overall, not bad for where i was with lack of training and such.
Undertrained and overweight, i was not expecting anything but fun and enjoyment from this weekend, i achieved both and soooo much more. I did not deserve this result, where this came from i have no idea, it was a total surprise. I had no goals and no expectations for this race, and would have been happy regardless of result. That being said, once i saw my swim time, game face came on and this was done on guts only, the bike was a struggle, power was there, my endurance was lacking, i lost a full MPH in the last 5 miles, the wind was stong and in your grille, the run hurt for a few miles, then i got with a guy and we ran most of the race together, i wanted 9m/mile pace, i was running 7:45's the last 4 miles. If not for the hiccup with the finish, i would have destroyed my 10k PR and been somewhere in the 46-47 minute area, and quite possibly a top 10 overall finish.
