I am now officially a triathlete! On May 19, I completed the Woman of Steel Triathlon in Bountiful, Utah. It was a women-only event, and it was a blast! I finished 65th out of 375 participants, in 1 hour 11 mins. Below is a breakdown of the different intervals:
Swim: Time: 00:06:28.150, Place: 133

FINISH!!!
Race Start: 07:15:26.960 / Stop Time: 08:26:47.090
Total Time: 01:11:20.13 / Overall Place: 65
I was especially happy with my bike time (placed 38th overall!) and my run was a lot faster paced than what I normally train at. Regardless, I had a great time! I actually just finished another triathlon on Saturday with all of David's family. Oh, and I've just registered for an Olympic distance triathlon in July. Wish me luck! :)
