This was going to be the most competitive field I have ever raced in!
37th overall and 8th in my age group is good considering, two week s earlier I was racing in a race some 128miles or 11 hours longer. That is Ironman Lanzarote!
The swim 12:50
I really wanted to do the swim in 10 minutes, and come out in the front pack!
But with just one week of speed training in the pool, this was never going to happen!
I had a really good swim, I really enjoyed it. I just get stuck in ironman pace and can't push myself!
T1 took forever!!!
The bike 30:45
I was 13th fastest on the bike only 40 seconds slower than the first finisher!!
I was chuffed with this considering my chicken legs!!!
T2 took even longer than T2
My feet were so numb I couldn't fit them into my shoes!!!
The run about 19 minutes
Very slow for me!!
But I knew I wasn't going to win my age group, so I kinda gave up!
