Second "Tri"

"The Best Daughter" and I liked the Bethany Beach Triathlon so much last year, that we signed up to do it again this year! I must admit though, I got quite apprehensive on doing the open water swim (and even considered downgrading from a triathlon to duathlon), but the entire thing got the better of me, and I carried on as originally planned. I was so nervous about the swim that I couldn't and didn't blog yesterday as much as I wanted to. 

But it all worked out in the end. The beautiful warm morning gave way to an awesome experience that I am so thankful I fully participated in the entire event, and sharing it with Olivia to boot!

Here are the best points:

* water temperature 75 degrees!

* water quite calm for ocean swimming (no sharks or whales!)

* Olivia won her age group and was 8th woman overall (5 min. faster over last year)

* I finished 5th in my age group and improved my time by 8 minutes over last year's race

* I just may have to sign up for next year!?

BSoleille!
