1:17:37

The magic number for me today was 1:17:37. That was how long it took me to complete the Solona Beach Sprint Triatlon (500m swim/14.5K bike/5K run).

I had a terrible swim, getting kicked in the head a few times and generally knocked around by the masses. Swimming in a horde is definitely a unique experience and this is my weak part of the race. I have a month to get to a mile in the water.

I powered in the bike, averaging over 20mph and I had a decent run, a 5K in about 28 minutes.

Overall, I beat my goal of an hour and twenty minutes, so I am generally pleased.
