Well, it has been 2 years since I have done this triathlon.
I was nervous.
Things are different now, and yet, still kind of the same.
I had a few crazy fears.
I think I worked through them and went into the race with hope, enthusiasm, and excitement.
A few stats:
2009 = 2:47
swim 29.20.65
bike 1.15.16
run 1.03.08
2010 = 3:03
swim 31:04.85
bike 1:25.37
run 1:06.26
My GOAL for 2012 = 2:49 My ACTUAL for 2012 = 2:54.18
swim :29 :29.09
bike 1:20 1:25.25
run 1:00 :59.42
I was very happy with my swim, I felt right on track. My bike ride felt good - I felt like I rode well. The transition times are both included in the bike time, and I think that is where I was not very speedy - but I can work on that. My run - I was absolutely THRILLED about! Under an hour! SO VERY HAPPY! It was a great #1 race!
a few pictures of the day:

| Yes - it is true - I'm a racing 40 year old! Yahoo! |
 |
| feeling ready - got the gear - here's hoping it doesn't rain/lightening . . . too hard. |
 |
| I'm loving my new wetsuit - it is really mine. . . . breathing . . . waiting . . . |
 |
| check out my form . . . Duane has it all figured out as what we need to change. . . . love that guy! |
 |
| OK, so do you see the look this girl is giving me?! Ya - that is why I have been hesitant to be all 'matchy matchy' and wear my crazy helmet. . . . you can see what she is thinking can't you! Ha Ha! Oh well - |
 |
| All Done! A Successful day! I know I pushed it because when I was done, I told Duane "I think I might throw-up!" and Duane said "Oh good for you!" |
