Let me first start off by saying, I am so lucky to be blessed with so many great supporters. I love going to races and hearing "Go Trista!" or "Go Timex!" from unfamiliar faces; or receiving a "Great race today!" as I walk through the crowd. I appreciate the incredible support from the communities I race in and always feel very welcomed. Yesterday was my first real go at a Duathlon. The Summer Open Sprint is my favorite Colorado race and this year, the recent rain made e-coli levels too high to swim in. I was okay with this as the water temps were hovering around 56 two days before the race. It was great to have so many of my clients racing here as well. I have had sketchy training since I returned from St. Anthony's as I've been fighting a cold, so I was unsure what to expect. When I hit 1 mile left in the run, I turned around to see if anyone was closing in on me. If not, I was going to cut the engine and just cruise in. Well, that didn't happen and I had to work really hard to maintain my position. As you can see from the photos it was a tight finish. But I was happy to have had enough kick to do it! I have to give a huge shout out to Tim Galbraith and his wife for these amazing photos! They were taking these unbeknown st to me! Its awesome to travel to races and be surrounded by my Timex peeps and crew. Yesterday it was awesome to be home and be surrounded by Jared Runyon: Kompetitive Edge and crew. It was great being able to be with them pre and post race and have that support.
Enjoy your training =)
