It's always hard and CAN be an ego buster if you're not careful.<br /><br />Swim to bike is NOOOOO joke. People don't spend enough time on it.

Even as a recreational swimmer I usually feel disoriented when I step out of the pool and just have to stand there for a minute or two because I am dizzy. I can't imagine pushing through that! This looks like it was a competitive event and I cannot believe a half marathon is more challenging!tfhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10735303292996192352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475703851125751608.post-83973623964056484932009-04-20T12:32:00.000-04:002009-04-20T12:32:00.000-04:00Good work!

Sounds like you did well, especially considering it was an open water swim!<br /><br />I think I'm going to train for a sprint tri next or maybe some trail running. This is only my first half-marathon that I'm training for and I'm already getting a bit bored with the road running...Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.com
