This was my first tri so I tried to pace myself. I took up swimming after knee surgery last year and this was the first time I've ever swam in a race. There is definitely room for improvement in my swimming abilities

This was my first tri and the first time I've run competitvely since tearing my meniscus last July. I tried to not push hard during the run just to see how my knee felt. It felt pretty good and I think I'll do another tri and incorporate some 5-10k races to see how the knee responds
