I'm proud (yes I'm bragging again, about something pretty pathetic actually)
that I won the 1st place in my division for the super sprint triathlon...
that would be... I'm first out of... 11... but 5th out of all women and 17
overall... out of only 96. But hey, in a year, that's not a bad achievement.
Humor me here?
Anyway, things to remember for this raCE:
1. come early
2. you can bring the ipod for the run
3. no dogs
4. great spectator area
5. bring more changes of clothes
6. have something warm in the water waiting area with you to wear because
the air can be colder then the water :-(
7. bring flip flops for the swim
8. you can warm up before the swim
there is a bottle swap and plenty of water and poweraide for those doing the
big race :-)
all of the above is subject to change
the chicago triathlon by the way has a nasty long transition area after the
swim. bring an extra pair of old shoes for after the swim.
note to seLF: buy new wet suit.
