This was me, on Saturday, during my triathlon transitioning from the Swim to cycle.. look at the concentration!
The last time I did a triathlon was over 3 years ago, pre-marriage when I was fit and healthy. This time it was really hard. Mainly because I hate running. Or maybe it's because I can't run like I used to. I plod. And yet.. I did it. And I loved it. And it has taught me that I can in fact do things that are really hard.
The results were posted yesterday and I placed 2nd in the swim, 11th in the cycle and .... 40th in the run. Not too bad considering I walked half of it. I finished the triathlon in 50 minutes and the fastest time was 42 minutes so, overall I placed 21st and am stoked. There are plenty more triathlons coming up this year and if you are keen to do one let me know because heck, if I can do one ANYONE CAN. Anyone. on. earth. For real.
NOTHING you’ve experienced can prepare you for how good you’ll feel when you cross that finish line. ( even if you come 40th like me!) xx
