I did it! With my first triathlon under my belt, I can’t help but feel a sense of gratitude towards all of you who have supported me and believed in me. I plan to write an entry with my full race experience, but for now, I wanted to share the results and acknowledge those who helped make it happen.
Before the race, I had set personal race goals for myself:
400m swim: 8 min
16k bike: 38 min
5k run: 28 min
2 Transitions: 6 min
——————————
Total Race Time: 1:20
My coach set goals for me which were more challenging:
400m swim: 7.5 min
16k bike: under 38 min
5k run: under 27 min
Transitions: 3 min
——————————
Total Race Time: 1:15:30
And a more lofty goal that I had striven for was to rank in the top ten of my age category.
Well, incredibly, I was able to reach all of those goals!
Here are my official race times:
400m swim: 10:09
16k bike: 34:25
5k run: 26:13
Transitions: 4:09
——————————
Total Race Time: 1:14:54!!
