I had a great time doing this race. Last year I came in around 1:37 so this is a huge improvement!
Getting 10th place in my age group is such a coup for me. Something I never expected. I am just thrilled. I am convinced that I did so well since I had everything so well planned. Last week I swam the course, I rode the course, I ran the course, I know the course! Mentally I had been going over not only my race plan but the actual race in my mind. I had been doing this daily for a few weeks before bed each night. I think knowing exactly how I was going to swim/bike/run and at what intensity as well as how to work each transition was very helpful.
Next year I will age up into the 35-40 year old category which is MUCH faster. I will probably not see a top 10 spot again for several years. I will just enjoy it now!
Here I am heading out on the bike. I am soaking wet and freezing!
