Woohoo!!! I did it!!! I really did! I finished my first triathalon today. My goal was to JUST finish. My wish was to finish in less that 1 hr and 30 minutes. My time was...1 hour 21 minutes and 19 seconds! I finished the swim in about 7 1/2 minutes, the bike in about 37 minutes, and the run in about 30 minutes (give or take on all of those). I truly cannot believe it!
What amazed me even more was all of the friends and family that came out to support me. I had over 20 people there just to encourage me! I am overwhelmed! As proud as I am for finishing the triathalon, I am more proud of my wonderful family and friends that I have made. All of them stood out in pretty chilly weather waiting for me to come in from swimming...and biking...and running. I am sitting here smiling from ear to ear thinking about how proud I am for sticking to my plan and keeping my determination, but mostly because these wonderfully supportive people have chosen me as their friend...and that they think that I am worth getting up early to come out and cheer me on! Makes me want to do it again...VERY soon!
