Jack's Generic Triathlon

A very good local race, 1K swim, 26 mile bike, 6 mile run.  Nice course, but incredible hot weather, with bright sun and no shade on the course.

I took it easy on the swim, focusing on swimming straight. And did not hurry the transitions, to save energy for what I expected to be very tough run.  On the bike, I worked pretty hard on the up hill parts, but otherwise didn't over do it.  I felt OK on the run, but I can't seem to run like I used to.

I placed first in my age group, in 2:14:21.  I averaged 23.7 mph on the bike, yay!
