 It's Monday. The race results have been posted.
I did get in 11 miles running yesterday in preparation for Salt Lake City. I felt pretty good but it was really hot here in Colorado and I quickly melted. And slowed down. I felt good during the run, surprising myself after my first triathlon. This morning I went ahead and did a light workout with some spinning and a 2 mile run. Also a little upper body weight training for swimming. After looking at the results of the Triathlon, I really need to work on my swim.
Now the results: The 2006 Pueblo YMCA Triathlon for Ordinary Mortals was held on Saturday May 20th starting at 6:45am. This year was a new course with the swim being held at the Pueblo County High School. There were 167 finishers. The weather started out warm and sunny at about 75 degrees and quickly rose to above 85 degrees by the time the last heat was held.
Because of my estimated slow swim time I was placed in the first heat of the day. This also gave me an advantage of cooler ride and run weather.
My final numbers: Swim - 12:41 10th in my age group Bike - 34:41 2nd in my age group Run - 24:31 5th in my age group
7th in my age group with a finish time of 1:16:12.5 Overall I placed 81st in a field of 167 finishers
I think with alot of work on my swim, and some coaching, I should be able to start placing in the top 5 of my age group. |
