Default Metroplex Sprint Triathlon

I just got done with the Metroplex Sprint Triathlon. It was a great day for racing (maybe a little hot, but otherwise a great day). I was especially fired up for this race because it is the first event that I have done twice (therefore can directly compare my results from the year before).

Race Info:

Swim = 800m in open water
Bike = 27km
Run = 5km

My times were as follows:

2007
Swim: 15:09.1 (1:54/M)
T1: 1:41.0
Bike: 44:50.6 (22.4 mph)
T2: 0:48.7
Run: 21:13.6 (6:48/mile)

GRAND TOTAL: 1:23:43.0

2006
Swim: 18:21.4
T1: 2:39.3
Bike: 50:24.7
T2: 1:11.1
Run: 22:33.3

GRAND TOTAL: 1:35:10

As you can tell, I made some serious improvements from last year. I was surprised that my bike was so much better this year, but obviously I was pretty pumped about that. I expected my swim to be much better (still with plenty of room for improvement) and my run to be a little better.

All in all, I am very satisfied with this race. This sthould leave me with plenty of confidence for my next Olympic distance event next month.
