Fun Triathlon Today...

I am getting pretty fired up about Ironman in less than 4 weeks! I raced a local Sprint Triathlon today and had a great day. The swim was solid, the bike too, but I did have to pull over to the side of the road for 30-40 seconds to adjust my shoe real quick. I probably would have averaged over 23mph if I hadnt stopped then. The run was tough, lots of hills and I felt like I was running a 12 minute pace, but hung in there with a 7:48 pace. I WILL get below 7 minute average this year! Anyways, racked up another "W" and a cool lil trphy to add to the mix. Results for the big boys are below. Have an awesome day everyone!!! 300M Swim, 12 Mile Bike, 5K

How fun!!! I am working up my nerve slowly to register for a Sprint Tri in October...waiting to see if I can jog a 5k on May 19.
Is there no standard distance for Sprint? The one in October is 600yd swim, 18mile bike, 5k run

 Awesome job as always!

Congrats on another great race! Will be ringing the cowbell for you during ironman Texas
