*St. George Triathlon*

Well I completed Triathlon number 2!!! One more to go this year and then the resume will continue on through next year!

All in all I was pleased with my race- a few things that stuck out after thinking about this race compared to Bear Lake:

A) I don't know if I care for the pool compared to the lake. I still encountered kicking, hitting, and the water being crowded! The pool felt not as big of a challenge compared to the waves, and feeling of being in the middle of a deep lake! :) I was much more confident in the pool though - most likely because that is where I do my training! That means I need to train more in lakes next year!

B) The bike course in St. George was two big loops. A good size climb and then down through construction and small pebbles everywhere! Crashes were happening left and right. My ride here in St. George was stronger- I felt stronger in the legs.

C) The Run.. Oh I don't want to talk about the run in St. George! After a swim and a 12 mile bike ride, a run in Bear Lake was not bad. It was on trails and flat.. However St. George was 1.5 miles of a intense incline. Mentally thinking "So i make it up to the top turn around Easy downhill" .. ummmm No not the case! My body was not ready for that run! I guess that means train harder! :)

But all in all - I cut 21 mins off of my finish time from my first race! Took 3rd in my age category and am ready for more!! Bring it!
