I swam strong, biked hard in the head wind and ran almost as fast as I did last year (except I took more walk breaks this year due to the heat) with having 10 weeks off of running.

Here are some pitures for now (as for the picture of transition - I am in there if you look carefully at the first rack; I am wearing purple and orange; I am bent over trying to get off my wetsuit!).
Race report to come!
Getting into my wetsuit - it takes so long!
The swim start - always chaos.
Into transition and out on the bike! I love the bike!
The final stretch of the run - I felt so strong!
