I am exhausted! Did my first half ironman distance triathlon today: 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 run. Physically, one of the hardest things Ive ever done if not the hardest. This race was part of my Chattanooga Ironman training and I definitely learned a lot. Need to work on my race nutrition and hydration!! I was drinking a lot but apparently didnt take in enough electrolytes. Severe leg cramping on the bike and run and wasnt able to run hardly any because of it. I literally was the last finisher. Quitting is never going to be an option and I did finish and Im very proud of that. It was a hot and tough event. In 6 weeks, I get to do double these distances! Ouch :)Thank you Jay Caughman for doing this race with me. Had a great time!
