Anyway, Blenheim Triathlon. Ever since I heard about this one sometime last year I wanted to do it. It seemed like a great course in a fantastic location and it certainly lived up to my expectations. The whole day was great fun, even the sometimes boring pre race brief was made entertaining thanks to the very lively guy delivering it. The triathlon itself went really well. It was the first open water race of the year and I was glad to get that under my belt. To be honest, the swim went better than I expected and I was a little disappointed when I reached the end! The bike and run sections were uneventful really which is good, especially given the drama I've had with my bike this week (long story!) My finish time was 1 hour 34 minutes 57 seconds which I'm really pleased with and is another race ticked off in the build up to next weekend.
Just a little side note before I finish up, I've had a little look at some more events and am hoping to be able to up my challenge to 20 events, partly because the extra events are ones I really fancy doing and secondly because 20 is a more round number than 16. I'll let you know as soon as they are all booked up though.
Don't forget the sponsor page is still live at www.justgiving.com/huw2013 and I'll be hopefully getting the total raised updated this week from the sponsorship forms I've got dotted around to give a better picture of how I'm doing.
