Triathlon
Yesterday I competed in my third annual Gold Nugget Triathlon (Anchorage, AK) - 500 meter swim, 12 mile bike ride, 4 mile run. Today, I received my results:

Total Time: 1:42:22

Swim Split - 8:23
T1 split - 2:44
Bike Split - 44:52
Run Split - 46:25

Overall Rank: 381 out of 1269
Age Group Rank: 63 out of 196
Swim Rank: 121 out of 1269

Here's the kicker: No warm up before the race, no training outside of my usual weight-lifting, and only two runs since last year...so...I'm fairly proud (Next year I need to train for running, it is by far my weakest point in the race. My swim is strong, but I could be a lot stronger. I didn't swim all year long and still did pretty good.) I'm going to target a new type of "tri"athlon next year: Ski - Bike - Sea Kayak - Run in Valdez, AK (it's a combination of all my favorite things -running)! I'm also thinking that a winter biathlon is in order!

If you wish to get in touch with me, please contact me via email. DeviantART's notes are an unreliable way to reach me, b/c I do not log in daily.
