Im a TRIATHLETE!!!

IT'S OFFICIAL I AM NOW A TRIATHLETE!!!

------------------------KC-TRI RACE RESULTS--------
Overall my first Tri experience was a blast. Everyone was so friendly and I think M.A rode by me when he was on his 2 loop of the bike. Correct me if I'm wrong. I will definitely continue in this sport. So here is my times. Wasn't very fast but I finished and now I have something to work towards. I did the sprint in case anyone was wondering.

Swim Time: 14:05
Swim Rate: 2:49
Tran 1: 4:12 ( Need to work on my tran time)
Bike Time: 1:03:34
Bike Rate: 11.7
Tran 2: 2:47
Run Time: 41:25 (Not very happy about this because I can usually run under 30 min for a 5K)
Run Pace: 13:22
Penalty: None

Finish Time: 2:05:59.07

Event Division: M2529
Overall Place: 402/420
Division Place: 21/21

My goal for the next race which is Topeka Tinman is to be definitely under 2 hours and not be last in my Division. This was a great first race and I finished which is an accomplishment and I know what I need to work on. A few of those hills were killers for me but overall a flat course.

It was split into two 3 mile runs each lasting 32 min then tonight I ran 12 miles in 2:38 which is not as fast as I would like but for a training run not too bad. Still training for the KC Marathon in Oct can't wait. Finally got my medal for the 15K Bara Desert run. It looks pretty cool Ill try and get a pic up in the next few days. Heres to a new week of training. Night all!!!
