Post-Triathlon

The race results were posted this afternoon...not going to say what my specific time was (to maintain privacy, and because it seems silly to focus on that).  Slower on the bike than expected, by about two minutes (forgot to start my stopwatch at the beginning of the bike ride, which in hindsight was a big mistake), and my swim was about two minutes slower than it usually is.  But that's okay.  I raced pretty well; there's room for growth.  I wasn't in it for the competition with others as much as, to meet the fitness goal I'd set for myself.  That goal was accomplished.

Started the post-race celebration this morning by buying kouign amanns (a very sweet and buttery French pastry) for my husband and myself, and a chocolate truffle for my son.  Plus a cappuccino.   The celebration will continue all week--with different treats each day.   Why not?  I don't become a 50-year-old triathlete every day. 

But now it's time to stop yapping about this and move on to more interesting topics.
