Wildflower Long Course: Never Again
I survived!
I guess I did more than that, depending on what standards you’re looking at. But that run has certainly left a very bad taste in my mouth. And I think I’ve been sleepwalking through this entire week…
To answer your question — no, I wasn’t about to poop my pants…but it sure looks like it from my gait.
Swim: 33:02
T1: 4:44
Bike: 3:14:56
T2: 4:32
Run: 2:18:06
TOTAL: 6:15:20 (14/75 among W35-39)
What I mostly can’t believe is that the training has, in essence, just begun. We have 15 weeks until Ironman Canada. This was a much-needed recovery week and I finally feel rested enough to not vomit when I think about running. I actually had a really good ride yesterday (that wasn’t flat) and a relatively fast 5.3 mile run today. RUNNING WITHOUT HILLS MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
I’ll have more photos and such this week. Thanks for all the well-wishes!
