I was thrashing about in the water, moving imperceptibly and being grabbed at by masses of weeds. I never got my form right at all, I don’t think. Not once. It felt like I was swimming through a net.

I did make it out of the water eventually, though.

On the bike I was bombing down a hill and my front tire started wobbling really fast and threatening to toss me off. I’m not sure if it was the bike or I was just really tired and out of it from the swim. It was drizzly and rainy. I passed a lot of people.

The run wasn’t bad at all. I stayed at a decent race pace and legged it out.

So, that was my first triathlon!

Kudos to Peachtree City Tri for having a sweet goody bag. I got a nice pair of socks and a cool shirt. I’ll be back next year!
