I was rinsing off my wetsuit after Wildflower and realized I wanted to do one more triathlon this season. I found a really fun event in Pleasanton called the California International Triathlon and signed up for the Olympic distance. The venue is Shadow Cliffs in July and it actually turned out to be nice day, not too hot. Since this was the first event for USA Productions at this venue, there were some small glitches (like, not enough volunteers), so there were some lessons learned that day. The bike route had some funky turns and the run route was down-right strange with a couple of out and backs and probably some accidental extra mileage for the Sprint folks (ouch!). But all in all, it was a fun event. I finished in 3:01:16 and am finally getting my transition times under 5 minutes (there's no where to plug in a hair dryer, I've finally accepted that fact). My sweetie was there to cheer me on and that was the best part of all. =)
