I asked J to blog about his triathlon today, but he said I could. How am I supposed to convey the experience of a first-time triathlete? I will say, he is a rockstar! He not only completed the whole thing, but he did really well! Except for the fact that three 60-year-old men beat his time ...
Anyways, here are his stats:
Total time--1 hour 12 minutes, 12 seconds
Transition from swim to bike time--3 minutes 40 seconds
Transition from bike to run time--1 minute 8 seconds
1/4 mile swim time--9 minutes 17 seconds
I would like to point out that J put himself in the beginner category for swimming and he ended up passing many of the people in the heat before him (they started 2 minutes ahead!) and even some others in the next heat up.
Looks a little like Baywatch, doesn't it? He's all mine ladies.
5.7 mile bike time: 22 minutes 36 seconds
5K run time: 35 minutes 33 seconds
