Today didnt exactly go as planned. Three miles in on the bike ride my tire went flat. :( I spent the next 13 miles pushing it up hills and coasting down and telling race officials that I wasnt quitting unless they forced me to. Eventually they agreed that as long as I stayed on the bike I could still race. One guy drove next to me and told me that if I decided to give up to just let him know so he could drive me back. I didnt give up though. It took hours but I finally made it to the transition. Then I started the three mile run before they could tell me to quit. As I was exhausted by this time an could barely walk my run took a while too. After a mile or so I got my legs back and managed to jog again. I can say that this race is one of the toughest things Ive ever done. But when I finally made it to the finish line three hours and twenty four minutes after I started it was so worth it. :D I was an hour behind the person in front of me, but I didnt give up. I finished. :)
