Swim was really easy. About half way through I noticed I wasn't swimming very fast and had to remind myself this was a race and not practice. After that, I sped up and caught probably 3 or 4 people. Only finished 30 seconds behind 1st place.

Calves and quads tried to start cramping at the beginning, so I made sure not to push it too hard. That kept me at about a 7:30-7:45 pace.

Are these races too close together to give me any sort of recovery? Will I be spent and unhappy racing back to back weekends and then again two weeks after that?

The challenge? The accomplishment? I want to do this because it is an opportunity to live life. The event is an indoor sprint triathlon. I get to experience the challenge on a safer scale.

I was passing others who were saying, "Good job, 587" (that was my race number). People were cheering me on. These were the nicest people I have ever been around!

Since I didn't have much time and since it's a super sprint, am I OK just go to at the training relatively hard through Thursday or even Friday?
