Today completed my second sprint Tri. Took part in the Kinloch Contact Tri.

750m swim + T1 (transition 1) 23mins 41secs

20km bike + T2 44mins 55secs

5km run 30mins 10secs

Total time 1hr 38mins 47secs

Very hot conditions after an 1100 start time, very choppy swim due to onshore wind made the swim leg harder for me though the wetsuit helped by approx 5mins over my swim time for the Blue Lake Tri on 25/01/2009.

The ride went well on an undulating course with what seemed to be a constant headwind.

The transition into the run was very hard and took the first circuit of the run course for the legs to free up.

All in all I am pleased with today and now will start looking to next Tri to do.

Went for a run today, being that today was Waitangi Day (a public holiday) I decided to take Laura-Jane (my oldest) out for with me, (L-J) rode her bike while I ran.

We ran /cycled for approx 6km (will have to measure exact distance) in 40mins 21secs. Felt good at the end, had a good steady pace. Early afternoon in high 20′s was hard work but well worth it.
