14 Jul Triathlon #2: Subaru Vancouver International Triathlon

I completed my second triathlon on Sunday, the Subaru Vancouver International Triathlon. I’m still working my way up the race volume (read: racing swim distance). I’m still happy having the swim less than 1km, and this race was close to home.

I finished 10th overall, first in my age group, but I’m most proud of my bike and run. Yeah, I was 67th out of the water, but had the 2nd fastest bike (26km) and 3rd fastest run (5km in 17:39). This means I passed 57 people after coming out the water?! Yeah I need to get working on this swim thing.

Congrats to all the other finishers!

Next up is figuring out races for the rest of the summer and fall. Maybe an Olympic triathlon, maybe a marathon!
