This is the fastest swim score I have ever had. Open water swims at Trout lake apparently have paid off.

Swim straighter and sight more

Had lunch with Jason and chatted with some of my coworker who came out to chear us on.

Event comments:

This is where I did my first race so i always try to do well here. Four years ago I did this in 2hrs and 5min. This year I was 18 min faster and made it in the top 10 of my age group. My goal for next year in to improve in the run and bike.

Girl!  Congrats on a GREAT race!  Bummer about the fatigue.  You are doing a good thing by listening to your body...take some time and the rest of your season should go really well! 

You had a kick swim!  So jealous!!!!  And the bike (even though you didn't hit your goal) was awesome! 

Congrats on breaking the top 10 in your ag!  Take care of the tootsies (try that frozen bottle trick MSUDan mentioned at the Trex race) and enjoy your little break!
