PlayTry
The ugly stats:
Time 3:35:10
Overall Place 204/242
Swim 34:50, pace 2:19
T1 4:51 (it was a long from the swim to the bike)
Bike 1:48:06, pace 15.0 MPH (not a misprint)
T2 2:32 (I kick Peter's butt on this one)
Run 1:04:48, pace 10:26 (again not a misprint)
I had nothing in the tank.
Pre Tri thoughts:
Swim - Swim good enough .
Bike - Lacking on the bike but it is only 27 miles .
Run - Maybe better prepared for the run although I have had about a 2 week slump in training.
Actual Tri:
My worst event to date.
Swim - Swim good enough.
Bike - Not good. The bike was a butt kicker. It was windy. I mean real windy. By the time we turned with the wind I could tell my leg strength was already weakening. I was so ready to get of the bike. We're talking slow.
Run - Not good. Maybe because of the bike. Maybe because of the lack of training. We're talking slow again.
Overall I was disapointed in my performance. I must get more committed.
Last year's time 2:45 (5 mile shorter bike route, thanks Peter)
This year's time 3:35
Time 3:35:10

Wed. Swim
Almost a waste of time. The Y has one lap lane open - 4 already swimming - waited until 2 left - 3 in the lane - 3 different speeds - go slow - go fast - pass - don't pass. Stunk.
About 35 minutes. No idea of distance.

Long time no workout
Sunday afternoon dog run. A nice day and a slow, SLOW run.
I have not worked out at all in 10 days. The PlayTri will be a challenge.
I will need to have the "tri-ing not so hard" attitude. I hope I don't drown. Thank goodness it cold enough to wear a wetsuit.
Anyway - 5 miles at 10 minute miles.
