Winding Trails off road tri series #8 - Triathlon

SANS wetsuit! Last one of the year for me - IMMT in 11 days and counting..... so I figured what the &^&$# let's go without the suit. It was fine - clearly I'm used to the buoyancy crutch as I took in a little water **coughcough** but all in all ok. Whatever time I lost on the swim I gained in transition not taking my wetsuit off.

URGH this course is the bane of my existence. I can't get my times down to where they were last year but I think most people are feeling that too. This was on of my fastest laps this season but I still would have liked to go sub 25 just once!

Every week I get passed by the same people - it's just a matter of WHEN. Wellllllll not this week. Apparently I got myself a good enough bike cushion that I held off a few people. TWO of the people that usually pass me early only beat me in total by 40 seconds and 3 seconds. And I even beat the third by 13 seconds! WOOT (sorry Stacey :) )

It was a good end to the off road tri season. Not sure I'll be back next year because mentally it's a big commitment while training for other things. <-- I said that last year.
