I made it!!!! Best of all I beat my brother Spencer's time and was only 7 min. behind my other brother Eric! :) Thank you. thank you! I did it in 1 hr. and 59 min. :) The swim was hard but surprisingly it was the bike that took me the longest.
So he is my time for each event
Swim 27 min
Bike 58 min
Run 23 min
So we woke up at five am to go set up and check in. First of all that is early and second it was so cold! But we checked in, set up our stuff and then Jeff (brother in law) gave me the low down of what I needed to do and the confidence I was lacking for the swim. :) The time came for us to start the race. I was super nervous for the swim but it all worked out. The swim was stuff for me cause I only swam like three times before the Tri. I was proud of myself cause I never touched the wave runners that were there just in case you need to rest. :) So finished the swim then went to the bike. (Jeff who did the Tri with me said the bike was a lot harder in Lake Powell then the one in St. George so that makes me a little bit better about myself.) The bike was stuff. I was biking along thinking I can do this and then I started to see bikers go up this big hill. I thought to myself "I sure hope I don't have to go up that." Of course I did. :) It was two big hills and I thought I was going to die!!! It was stuff but I made it. Then I ran my 3 miles and placed #1 for my age group for the women. So that makes me happy. I was so happy to have beat my brothers time and I look forward for the next one in June. That is the one my brother said he is "going to kill ALL of us" lol Will he ever learn to shut his big mouth? ;)
