MY FIRST TRI

This past Saturday I completed my first sprint distance triathlon. It was a 1/4 mile swim, 12 mile bike and 3 mile run. I had no idea what my time would be, but I guessed between 1:30 and 2:00 hours. Guess what I did? 1:29!! I was so pumped, I think I'm ready for the next one. The best part was the people I met and the comraderie. Everyone was doing their first triathlon, so there was no intimidation from the big timers. The worst part was probably the transitions. I was amazed how tired I was after each leg - the worst being bike to run. I felt like my legs were a ton of bricks, but then they were wobbly like jello. (Very weird feeling) I may do another one this summer, but I think Ironman is a few years down the line!
