I became gold last week on Friday. More details are on my blog on this page. Here is just summary:
Swim (3mi) 2:18:02
Run (6mi) 53:16
Bike (36mi) 2:11:13
Total 5:22:31
Stared at 12:30pm ET finished by 11:55pm ET the same day. Do I get like a double gold or something for finishing in less than 12 hours :-) ? Either way I had a lot of fun on Friday and also on Saturday when I raced in 5k road race with shot legs and aching body. Very interesting experience.
Thanks Romanica for setting-up the page for us. I'm definitely coming back next year to do this. It will be only 1 more mile biking and running :-).
The swim WAS almost magical--in an eerie this-is-not-so-bad kind of way. I think I was hallucinating a light show on the bottom of the pool for the last hour.
