  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Considering it was my first race - i think I was alittle out of my BOX on this one, and my boyfriend who was so worried I didn't train enough.. (he's a marathon runner & know's tons about tri's) was a little worried I wouldn't finish or it might be a little out of my league. I would train harder and for the WHOLE 5 months... I've changed so much. Now doing a 1/2 marathon in Nov (my first) I've STUCK to the training plan - my body weight I can tell a difference, My legs are a lot more tone and I'm starting to get that Athletic body I've always wanted! Triathlons have changed my life - it's totally a life style for me - I'm doing a sprint on Oct 8th (This sunday) I will post the results, can't wait to compare to how fast I have ran! I can't wait!!!

  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: It was my first oly and I told everyone "I just wanna finish." But the fact is I really wanted to do better than 3:08:56. I need to keep my eyes open a bit better on the swim, try harder during the race and for crying out loud get my ass off the couch and train more! Chicago is in 10 days so it's time to put up or shut up.
