OSU Sprint Triathlon results

That person in the picture above is me!

Haha! Not! I finished dead last. Out of 249 racers I finished #249.

Place: 249/249
Swim 400 meters:
Rnk: 250/ 249 (How did that happen? Someone must have quit the race after the swim?)
Time: 17:21 (I had to poo and change my clothes. That took 10 minutes. It dosen't take me 17:21 to swim 400 meters!)
T1 Time : 1:34 (more like 15 minutes! They counted most of my transiton time in my swim)
Bike 12.4 miles:
Rnk: 249/249
Time: 1:35:51
Rate: 7.8 MPH (I'm blazing fast!)
T2 Time: 1:09 (A little shorter this time!)

Run 3 miles:
Rank: 226/249 (Yeah! Not dead last on this one!)
Time: 30:10
Pace: 10:03 (Either I've gotten really fast on the run or they mismeasured the course. I hope it's the former!)
Total time 2:26:05 (Yeah! I'm blazing fast. Call me the next winner of the Hawaii Ironman!)
Believe it or not, I still got first place in my age group since I was the only one in my age group. It was a very nice first place plaque I recieved.

I think I am ready to move up tp Olympic distance triathlons now (after I work a little on my bicycling skills). I didn't feel very tired after this triathlon like I did after all 3 triathlons i did last year. It felt like the end of a normal workout. Maybe I just need to go faster!

Oh well, that was probably my best race performance yet. Full report comming tomorrow.
