Red Rock Rio Salado Triathlon

I don't make a habit of writing numbers on myself.

They were for the triathlon.

It was a few weeks ago so it's taken me a while to blog about it.

This was my 7th race in the last year.

Each race was different from the next.

Although I did a triathlon on November last year,

this one was different because it was my first open water triathlon.

That's right, I swam in Tempe Town Lake.

SWIM

BIKE

RUN

My actual time was 1:51

because my start time was six minutes after the first start time.

I loved sprinting across the finish!

Lindsay was such a great partner to train with!

We motivated each other a lot!

When training we talked about how no matter how hard we train we still look like moms when we look in the mirror but I like that. I don't want to look like a teenager. I'm a mom and I love it!

The Jones Family

Andrew showing I'm #1.

It has become something of a tradition.

(We did the same here and here.)

Over all I was happy with how I did but I want to do better next time.

My run felt great but there was a lot of room for improvement in the swim and bike.

I'm so glad I did it!
