Well while all of you were having an extra sleep in on Monday (well those whom happen to live close enough to Auckland to get Anniversary day) I was doing the annual Triaction women's triathlon.
It was a 400m swim in Pilot Bay, 10km bike around Mount waterfront and finally a 2.5km walk/run.
There were age groupings, I was in the second group 20-24yr. I reckon I was closer in age to those whom were in the next age group up. We were the second group released. But I was like one of the last 15 out of the water anyway.
Of 253 entrants 13 either didn't turn up or they didn't finish the race. I know this because I was last across the finish line at number 240!
The fastest person finished in 34.24 minutes I took 1:29.34 nearly a full hour after her.
It was a grand adventure and I am thinking about getting professional help with my swimming as that is what took the longest. Also I am a very poor swimmer and would like to get back to the level of ability I was when I was at Intermediate.

Ahhh, swimming, I didn't register that you would be doing that Lol. I always hated swimming at school, I could never swim properly except for breast stroke. I always got water in my mouth when I tried to breathe doing freestyle.
