What a rush!!! It was an amazing day and wish I could do it all again….really. Considering that I had my ACL surgery back in January and started swimming in Carleton university in July, I am more then happy with my result. It was great to compete in this event with my friend Simon Macdonald, which was his first triathlon as well. My mom, brother, and a few others were there to cheer me on as I transitioned between the swim to bike and bike to run. So…where do I stand, why don’t I load up the results.

Combining all the athletes in the Try-a-Tri event, I ended up in 4th place overall. Drilling down a little further, I was in third place overall for the males, first in my swim, and first in the bike, but lost the lead in the run towards the end. Take a look for yourself:

What will this mean for next time? I got to work on increasing my running cadence and improve my transition times. However, the goal of this event was to have fun, but also do my best. I couldn’t have asked for a better result, especially, what I have been through this year with my recovery. I hope to publish photo’s once they are posted on ZoomPhoto.ca
