Evidence

I was looking through my computer just now and found some pics and video of me at various tri events, and thought I should post some to provide evidence of past exploits.
Seems there's a famous adage in blogland, which goes something like:
no pictures = didn't happen

So, view and believe. These are from my first triathlon, a half olympic and I was terrified. My first open water swim for starters, second my first race of any type since school. Yep, more nervous than I could remember. But the rush at the end was phenomenal.





















Note the laces being tied......yeesh


In full control coming in to the finish shute, you know.... for the cameras.
The relief that I'd made it was huge, but man did I want to do another one, and soon!
There are more pics of later races, but this will do for now.

are speedos still the weapon of choice?

Nooooooo.

I was banned from speedos as it was too much of a distraction for the women's racers. And some of the guys ;)

I was in the full suit after a one season. Definitely a positive change, i.e. better in the water, on the bike.
