I'm convinced that the triathlon events should be in the reverse order :grumble: Instead of swim/bike/run it should be run/bike/swim. It seems more natural to ride after running and to finish with a nice swim. :bigsmile: I could come up with at least 4 good reasons to prove my point

Today is an un-scheduled rest day, my legs are like lead weights after this weekends running (specially last nights intervals... erugh!), a bit of upper body stuff might be the ticket )

@ ka97: Completing an olympic tri is a major accomplishment, congrats. :drinker: Would you like to tell us more about it, I'm all ears.

I was hoping my mileage would be somewhat higher, but since all my miles are outdoors and the temperatures have been in the high 90s (they expect 43C / 109F today) for the last 3 weeks, making progress is a bit of a struggle.

Thanks! It was my first of that distance so I'm pretty stoked! I know my times aren't great - 36 on the swim, 1:24 on the bike, and 1:11 on the run. The swim was actually better than all my practice swims so I was pretty happy with that. The 10k run was my worst time ever. It was REALLY hot and humid and I ended up walking a lot. Though I did have a lot of company while walking as there were many walkers/runners out there! And I heard that there were quite a few women (it was an all women event) who did not finish. So I'm just happy that I did it. I have two more sprints scheduled for this summer, but I'll definitely be doing a couple of Olys next year!
