Spur of the moment Tri
I got an email from one of the local companies that runs triathlons all spring & summer long.
I realized I hadn't done a complete tri all year, so I figured, it's the last race of the year, you better get on it if you want to race.
So I did.
Oh well at least it's a sprint. As long as I don't drown, I should be able to finish this in my sleep.
Gotta go put the aero bars back on the bike.
I hope the river isn't too cold, because I don't plan on wasting the time putting on and taking off a wetsuit. I hope to do the whole thing in my tri suit.
The first time you do something - It's going to be a personal record!
So, what is it???

I hear that it is snowing up in the mountains too, so by sunday that could make it a wee bit colder.
I did this one a year or so ago as an eary start to a season and tha****er was so freaking cold, I basically had to dog paddle acros. I couldn't put my face in the water, it just took my breath away every time. It sucks trying to swim with your head above water like that.
Anyhow it should be fun.
If you are interested in doing a Tri Danni, you should check these guys out
They run all kinds of events all year long. Off road, on road, x-terra, from little tiny sprints like this one up to 1/2 ironman events, and they have training weekends where you can come up workout on the courses and get instruction as well.
It seems like they have stuff going almost every weekend.

I'm thinking 8-9 minutes for the run
15-20 minutes on the bike
as fast as I can doggy paddle across the river hahaha
