I once heard “a trying time is no time to quit trying” and that was tested during my Newbury Triathlon. Two flat tires left me stranded with two miles left to hike my bike to the transition area for finishing the cycle. Well I finally made it and decided it was still worth finishing the race.
Time: 1:21:27
- 6:21 Swim
- 50:58 Cycle (normally in the upper 30′s)
- 21:49 Run
Definitely an exciting race with 300+ contestants and the notoriously overcast weather of Britain.
2010 Newbury Triathlon (300m swim/22k cycle/5k run)
This has brought me one step closer to goal of competing in 4 athletic races in 2010, and hopefully I will find my last one in November or December.
