BlueSkiesKel 0 #1 February 12, 2007 Ok, so today I raced what's called "The World's Toughest Sprint Triathlon" ... and now I know why..OMG!!! I have never in my entire life seen hills for a bike ride like these.. it was basically scaling a freakin mountain. straight steep incline for like 9m! it was sooooo brutal. Though I did finish the run in the fastest time (at least I think so, the race results arent actually posted yet.... But yeah, my goal wasnt even close (guess I should have known the bike ride was that hard beforehand) most girls in the collegiate team were finishing around 2hrs 17min, by my watch I finished in 2hrs 10min, but it may have been off... so we'll see... and after 3hrs of sleep i'm back at work I dont know if i'll ever run this particalar TRI again, I didnt have anyone come out with me, so I had to take a picture by myself in my apt when i got home... I know one thing for sure.. tomorrow.. I dont care what it costs, I'm getting a damn massage! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
