I always seem to be nervous for triathlons. More so than anything else I do I ponder why I am there at the start. Why do I do this to myself? I am definitely out of my comfort zone.
However, once I get started its all OK. My race went fine. I worked hard on the bike and the run.
I enjoyed seeing friends - some were surprise encounters as I had no idea they'd be there. Kippers, Staci, Chuck and Jon.
Tammy had a difficult day so we are both glad to now focus on Bandera.
After a half ironman on my 50th birthday and some injury problems I decided to have another bash at a 100 mile trail race. I completed Kettle Moraine 100 on June 2/3 2012 with the help of coach Olga Varlamova-King. My new goal is to go faster at distances less than 100 miles..... and to have fun doing it.

Resurrection of the blog
We are well beyond the 100 miles. 6 years on in fact. Going to restart the blog with a few entries looking forward.
Next up are:
Jack's Generic Tri - Austin August 26
Bandera 25k - Bandera TX Jan 6, 2019
Cape Fear 50k North Carolina Mar 16 2019
Grand Teton redo WY July/Aug 2019
I have returned to my love of mountains and trails. But to keep doing these I have to be stronger. I have joined a strength training group at Travis County Strength. The trainers, Jen and Travis, are awesome. If I'm consistent there is no doubt I will get stronger.
On a completely different topic I am excited and hopeful to see Imran Khan is now PM of Pakistan. Go Imran!
