This tri was a 300 yard pool swim (both of her other races were open water swims), a 15 mile bike and a 5k run. This is a very popular race because it is a really fun event and it sold out at 400 athletes, but on race morning there were 520 bikes in the transition area. I guess the race director just couldn't say no. With a pool swim, it is not a mass start; they send out swimmers every 10-15 seconds. That means that as some people are finishing the race, others are just coming out of the water. You don't know who the winner is until it is all over.
She had an awesome race and took 2nd in her age group! Wow! 3 races and 3 medals. Can't beat that. Congratulations, Nana, on another great race.
ready on the wall for her cue to go!
a cold transition to the bike!
