We did well. We got 42nd overall. I don't have the running portion results yet, they were delayed. We did 1:07 overall. I think I ran like 25 minutes, I hope. Although it may be closer to 26-27. But I felt great.
Even though my hip hurt from my fall off my bike on Friday and I was so sore in my quads from yoga on Saturday. I did feel pretty crappy, but I pulled it through. It was a tough run course, it was pretty hilly. If it were flatter I would have done better, hills are something new I make myself do so I haven't put a lot of work into them yet.
I'm proud that I ran a race and did well. In two weeks I have Wild Dog, and I'm now getting more excited and more scared about it.
My only thoughts during the race were that last year I couldn't walk up the stairs without running out of breath. That I'm doing really great.
The guys were so nice to me. I was fortunate to meet Kevan. Otherwise I think I'd be lost!
Here's us after the race:
I'm hoping to get some open water swim in today with a group of people from the YMCA, but Luca hasn't called yet. So I'm not sure when they're going. If that fails I'll put some time in on the bike. A quick 20 miles or so.

Found your blog through beginner Triathlete. Good job on the Naval station run! The Wild dog was my first ever Tri and it was great! See you there!
Thanks so much for reading! Most of the time I shoot this blog out into space and think no one reads it... :)
Good luck at Wild Dog! I think a lot of local BTers will be there...
