I did it. Successfully completed a sprint triathlon. It was such a wonderful morning and the sense of accomplishment was right up there with running the marathon. For five months after giving birth, not too bad!
During the swim:
Starting the bike:
Crossing the finish line!
After the race I was greeted by Mr. Starfish and Little Starfish:
I highly recommend a sprint tri for those looking for a doable challenge! Still trying to decide what race is next!

Wow! What are the distances for a sprint tri? I can say I've ridden a century, but I don't swim well, and my running days are behind me.

Way to go, Paige! I knew a lot of girls that did Rambling Rose this year...maybe if I start training now I'll be in shape for next time. I can swim and bike, but running is not my thing. You look great :)
