My second TRI of the season was in Santa Fe. Santa Fe sits at 7000' ft, Clovis is at 5016ft...so Santa Fe is slightly higher. Let me just say I did not train nearly as much as I should have for this TRI as I did for my first one that I did in May. I let other things take over and I did not make a priority as I did before. Some days I feel as if I'm selfish by making time for myself but at the same time, I'm a better momma if I do that. So now I know.

I had a fun race. A decent run. The bike....well, I think we all know how I feel about the bike. But I had fun, I kept playing catch up with #214, she'd pass me, i'd pass her and the game was on, until she passed me one last time and then I never saw her again...at least I don't think so, I could have passed her in the pool and not known.

As much as I love the swim, I didn't love this swim. I did not pack a swim cap, which isn't too big of a deal, it was only a 400M swim. But when I got in the water, I couldn't see and it made me mad, so I ripped off my googles and threw them aside. I finished the swim but boy did my eyes hurt for the rest of the day.

All in all, I didn't do so bad. I know there is room for improvement. I know what I need to work on and I plan on doing just that. Next one, August 21, Clovis, NM @ Cannon AFB. What better way to celebrate my birthday!!
