16 miles of rolling wouldn’t make for anything to write about if it wasn’t for its part in today’s local sprint length triathalon. As a trial run for longer events I am targeting later in the season, this event including a 0.3mi swim and a 3.1mi run gave me some personal respect for the essential multidiscipline endurance sport. <\/p>\n
The bike leg went really well. As usual I found myself running my commuter wheels in a field of carbon fiber and aero bars, but I felt competitive despite the modesty of my equipment and my legs felt strong through the duration. It was a good thing biking carried me because my swim was only average thanks to a mild panic at the reality of open water swimming and the run was predictably slow. Transitions were smooth, not at all the stress others seem to make over them. <\/p>\n
A good time, I’m already looking forward to this event next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
