Haven't swum in a couple of weeks. I've been (sort of) training for a marathon and fitting some long rides on the weekends, but probably not working out more than 3 days a week lately secondary to needing copius amounts of study time.
Quick summary of today's race:
* The swim was pretty uneventful, and since I was in the last wave, I didn't see many other swimmers.
* The bike was a bit short, by around 1.3-1.5 miles
* I didn't know that I was going to need an ark instead of a bike for the last hour.
* Hilly was an understatement for the bike. There may have been two or three miles' worth of flats, but definitely not more than that.
* I still managed a PR, even if you correct for the short bike.
* I felt SPECTACULAR on the run, better than I've ever felt in a half, and I came in with a 4 minute PR on hilly run course.
* I looked down at my arm at mile 1 of the bike to see a wasp trying to pull his butt out of my arm. It still stings, and now it itches.
* Steve made a lot of friends dressed up as the Grim Reaper on the run. His nipples, however, are no longer his friends.
More later! We're exhausted, and I've got to get back to Ironmanlive.

My stupid nipples. Will you kiss them? Never mind the puss.
"Pus." I meant to say pus.
Well done Pharmie! Some days are just meant to be great!
Congrats on the PR. Being stung while riding your bike, not fun at all..
Rest up.
Congratulations on the PR. And I'm really glad you met that Steve guy - I hear he's really funny :-)
