Rock on girl. Well done. Your transition times are fantastic. i'm still trying to break the 2 min barrier. that's the clinic paying off i guess.

Another great race!!

What an improvement on your swim time. In a couple ocean swims I've done jelly fish were mowed down by swimmers ahead of me so I didn't get stung so perhaps that is why you didn't notice the weeds. LOVE that last photo of you finishing. You look so happy!!

Mel, congratulations on triathlon #2! Well done!!!

Yuck, hate swimming through weedy water too. It can be hard to push the bike pace. Part of it can be mental because how hard should you push so that you can still have enough left in the legs for the run? See if you can find a triathlon group who does indoor training ride classes in the winter. That can help you out so much. Most of the tri stores here in town have them, but talk to your teammates.

Sorry to hear about the shins on the run! Mine have been hurting too, and I think my problem may be that I've returned to wearing high heels. Sigh...love my shoes, hate the shin splints!

Great job again Mel!

Congrats! Sounds like a great experience!

Lake swimming is nasty stuff but you will get used to it – I did a race last year and when you got out it looked like you had a sash from a beauty pageant made from weeds and stuff … yuck!
