NYC 2011 Triathlon: Overview

August 8, 2011

Yesterday I competed in my second triathlon, once again tackeling the nasty waters of the Hudson River, a long bike ride along the West Side highway, and a hilly run through Central Park. IT WAS HARD! For various reasons, I felt that this year’s race was much harder than last years. With rainy weather, rocky waters and a delayed race start, maybe my head wasn’t completely in the race, but either way, I did a pretty good job (for me anyways) and am proud of finishing.  Here are a few pics throughout race weekend:

Fast-forward to the end of the run- almost done!

True love, coming to hug me even through I had just been swimming in the Hudson!

Giving my mom the play-by-play of the race.

Post-race stretch, ahhh

Shout out to my cheering squad- you guys are the best!

Goodbye!
