Subject: One Sprint done Hello all. My name is Scott and I am from Elkton, MD. Started running to lose weight in March. Then began running some 5k's. Saw an ad for a sprint triathlon near my house and thought it would be good training to keep up the weight loss. Did the Top of Delaware on Aug. 17th. 1/4 mile swim, 11.4 mile bike, and 2.6 mile run. Finished in 1hr20mins. #102/271. Was pretty happy with the results since I had just started swimming and riding bike less than a month before race. I am doing another sprint this weekend. This one is a little longer but a lot flatter. 1/2 mile swim 19.5 mile bike and 3.3 mile run. Hoping to do one more before the end of the season. Would love to train all winter and move up to Olympic distances next year. |
