Triathalon

    On Sunday I did a triathlon. I did the sprint distance which is 500m swim, 20 km bike and a 5 km run. The weather was horrible when we were driving to the tri. There was lots of rain and wind. The water looked very choppy when we got there. It was still sprinkling when we got in the water. The water was the choppiest that I have ever swam in. It was hard to sight and figure out where I was going. I swam the 500m 4 minutes faster than I swam in the last triathlon I did. The bike was difficult because the ground was still quite wet. There were some hills that I liked because I get a bit bored on just flats. The run went all right. By the time we were running the sun had come out and it was really nice.
     Overall I am pretty happy with how I did. I finished in 1:32. I was 64th over all. I was 10th out of my age group of 15th but I was only 37 seconds from the 9th place in my group. I have another triathlon coming up soon and I am hoping to go slightly faster.
