First race of the year and I am pretty happy with it. Huge improvements over the last time I did this race in 2008 and I think all areas are PR times, I know the run is.
So..
2008: 200 out of 301 men, so bottom third: 165th on swim @ 5:30 T1 2:35 55 on bike @ 26:25 T2 1:52 and 281 on run at 34:10 for a total of 1:10:29
Compare to this year
2011: 87 out of 180 men so middle of the pack: 64 on swim @ 5:00 T1 2:07 37 on bike @ 24:45 T2 1:23 and 122 on run @ 26:10 (PR by :48 as well) for a total of 59:23
I raced Master Clydesdale, barely made the weight (yea!.. boo), fully dressed with shoes on was only 204. Anyway, I finished 6/13 in my division. I would have been 11/19 had I raced in the 40-44 group, in which I will have to compete from now on. Oh, well. Good and bad.
Great job Eric. You keep dropping weight and you will be setting all kinds of PRs. Looks like a great 2011 is ahead of you!

Nice work Eric!
ReplyDeleteThank you all. Hopefully it continues. Still a ways from my goals. I am lucky to have a very supportive and understanding family at home.
