The morning of the Trek Sprint Triathlon couldn’t have been more beautiful, sun glistening off the lake, corn fields shimmering emerald green in the gentle breeze, and not a cloud to be seen all the way to Minnesota. I felt great, relaxed and ready to knock out a personal best. I was well on my way, knocking 3 minutes off my previous swim times (Thank you Crossfit!) and killing the bike (finished in the top 30%). Then it happened, THE RUN, I fell apart. Quads quivered, bunions bulged, calves collapsed. My overall time was just 2 seconds faster than last year. But despite that, I had a great time and will be back in July 2012.
