Did the tri yesterday. Given my recent illness(es) it went better than expected.  Swim time spot on, ride time not embarassing, and the run time was ( for me) solid.  It was an encouraging start.  I've slacked the last 6 weeks and the experience was encouraging enough to make me bear down again for a little while with the training.
The event itself was very well done.  The marshals were great, the people running the show did a fantastic job, and it was really nice being able to ride to the race and run, bike, and swim in a familiar setting.  I'm a little stiff today, but given last week being a little sore isn't anything I'm not used to.
One thing I noticed.  Knowing that she was going to be standing around in her bare feet, everyone woman there had freshly painted toenails.  So I suppose that in addition to all the other stuff necessary for triathlon preparation, women have to add "paint toenails" to the list.  That seems like a bit of a pain, but their feet did look nice.
Wow, that sounded creepy.
