I finished my second sprint triathlon this morning. It was very hot today. The ocean was pretty calm so the swim 1/4 mile was nice. The bike(10 miles) was nice with no wind the course was very flat there were cars on the course and they were very considerate. The run is the hard part for me and today was a tough one. I did a lot of walking today. I finished the course and had a good time. I have been training with a group of new triathletes (30 of us) everyone finished the race today. We all had a positive experience and I think most will do some more. We were even talking about training next weekend. Just had to share.:smile:

    That is great! I did my 1st a few weekends ago. .5 swim, 17 mile bike, 5K run.
    My swim was horrid since I couldnt stay on track. I LOVED it though. Congrats and keep up the good work. I hope to do a 1/2 iron next spring or fall

    Great job! I did my 2nd tri two weeks ago- it was a 600 yd swim/ 13 mile bike/ 5K run. Lots of fun! I am going for the Olympic distance next month!! :drinker:
