Jackson County Triathlon

It appears my blog has taken a little detour. I started it as a way to ramble on about whatever happened to be on my mind at the time and now? It has turned into a triathlon race recap blog....what? Had you asked me a year ago if I would have a blog, I would have said, "probably not." If you would have asked me if I would have a blog full of triathlon race recaps, I am certain I wouldn't have answered....I would have laughed. Really loud.

But here I am.

And yes, after the sad showing at our last race we decided to do ONE more and finish the season with a win. And a win it was if I do say so myself!

We competed in the sprint distance (a distance equivalent to our first race) and I beat my time by over 23 minutes! Now, what would have propelled me to finish so strong? A new bike? Yes. Fine tuning my doggie paddling? Maybe. I was passing people. In case you read that too quickly and you didn't comprehend what I said; I PASSED PEOPLE. I passed people doggie paddling.

(Maybe I should call Guinness now and find out how fast the worlds fastest doggie paddler paddles...I think I might be in the running!)

Overall the race was great! I felt great! I finished strong and cannot wait for next year!

Maybe this winter I will take some swim lessons. Maybe. Or I might procrastinate until next spring.....
