Wildflower 2007

The weekend before last I competed in the olympic distance triathlon course at Wildflower. This was my second triathlon but first olympic distance. The experience was amazing. The challenge, excitment, and competitive atmosphere all added up to a great weekend. Meghan and I camped out with the medical team for two nights. They are a fun AND loud group.

I ended up placing 20th out of 57 people in the 20-24 year old age group. I finished in 2:55:21 and my goal was to beat 3 hours. The triathlon consisted of the following events in order:

1. 1.5K Swim
2. 40K Bike
3. 10K Run

In the photo above is me and Andy (the competition in my age group).

  4. Great job! (I did a 40k bike ride the other day for fun, and that alone took me three hours!)
