andygatesLast time, honest. The official results are up and differ from my posted ones taken from the dodgy green tent:
Swim: 00:26:30, second slowest there. Woot! Not slowest! (I feel like Fry in Futurama) The modal swim time was about 15 minutes, so that nominal 500m was pretty stiff for all.
Bike: 00:38:47, halfway through the field. Happy to keep that relative position despite the aquatic beasting. What I need to work on is finishing the bike leg fresh for the...
Run: 00:31:21, can we say "fatigue" boys and girls? A 6:20 kilo (10-minute mile) pace again - definitely need to do work on this. That was as much of a shuffle as it felt.
Total: 01:36:38, 78th out of my group's 81 (!) As expected for an OW event, the "tail" was very short - a tight competitive spread from 1:02 to 1:25 then a short scattering of us noobs.
