Challenge Atlantic City, a full distance triathlon (2.4 mile swim, - TopicsExpress



          

Challenge Atlantic City, a full distance triathlon (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike and 26.2 mile run) was this past Sunday. Although the race didnt quite go how I wanted, I am reminded how lucky and fortunate I am to be able to even get to the start line and even more fortunate to finish. This was my 8th race at this distance. My overall time was 13 hours and 36 minutes. Some obstacles during the day: Swim - No wetsuits allowed at the last minute and strong currents, Bike - appeared to have a headwind the entire time, Run - stopped sweating and couldnt take in or hold down liquids and became dehydrated. After I finished, I ended up going to the medical tent (first time ever at a race) and received an IV of two liters of liquid. It helped and I feel like a new person today. Now when is the next one??
