NEW JERSEY STATE TRIATHLON

This past Sunday was the NJ State Triathlon at Mercer County State Park near Princeton, NJ. It has become an annual tradition with friends from DC as well as my sister who lives in Morristown, NJ. This was my 4th year racing at this wonderful event and I love sharing the experience with friends/family. We had a great day despite some scary thunderstorms in the early hours that held off long enough for everyone to finish.

I was happy with my results in the Sprint even though my total time was a couple of minutes slower than the previous year.

Swim (500 meters) - 11:44
Transition 1 - 2:50
Bike (11.5 miles) - 38:05
Transition 2 - 2:08
Run (3.1 miles) - 25:48

Total time = 1:20:33 which good enough for 11th place out of 70 in my age group. I'll take it!

Scary to think that my Half Ironman is less than a month away. Gulp.
