Eight weeks after a miserable attempt to do a triathlon, we did it! Scares and all! Eight weeks to the minute after being loaded into an ambulance we were half way through the bike portion of the Cane Creek triathlon in Waxhaw NC.
We did not wear any timing device and set a record for slowest transition times ever, seven minutes between swim and bike and three minutes between bike and run and finished with in one hour and forty nine minutes (my wife and kids purposely slowed me up to make sure I didn't black out again, it was worth the slow time for all the hugs and high fives!).
I was a great experience and dispite only riding the bike 40 miles in the last eight weeks after the crash, it felt great and we are back on the horse! Detemination overcame adversity.
Next stop, City of Oaks Marathon!
