I had the best time at my triathlon today. Well not literally. My finishing time was a little on the lame side but that that is OK.
The swim could definately have gone better. I was very excited to start and I don't know if I started swimming too fast or if it was just the wetsuit constricting my chest but I was having trouble getting my breath. Eventually I made it but I was much, much slower than I thought I would be.
That made me very determined to work super hard on the bike. I rode as fast as I could make my legs go so I'm quite proud of that. I was out there for probably 45 minutes all the while my heart rate was at about 90% of my max. Hoooweeee! Fun!
My run was *meh*. Could have been slower so I should be happy with that. All in all I had a great time and want to do another one. I am thinking of ditching the half marathon in favour of actually training for a second triathlon in August.
