so, i did my last tri race for the season last sunday up in vermillion. race site area was great. but the result, well....can't say anything good about it.
at first, after the race, i thought to myself, man....that was terrible. as much as i think i did great in the swim, but somehow my legs wouldn't want to fire up on the first 5 mile of the bike. it was hard for me to pedal, but then after a while, it went ok and i was able to speed up and gain my speed back. the run, well.....let's just say, i would like to thank all the support from the community of vermillion for lending some water, cheering voice, and hand-clapping throughout the run course. without them, i would probably not finish the race. it was hot and at the same time, i think i was not properly hydrated the day before. my fault....
after having thought about what happened before and during the race, and also talked with my best-friend (yy), i realized, '...hm...maybe it was not too terrible, after all...' i was a little disappointed, since the result was not what i expect to be of myself, but yet, i'm pretty sure i live with it. definitely learned from it tho.
as hot as the day was and as hard as the course was, i do still thank GOD that i can finish the race. quite a few things happened along the way to some people, including a DNF for one of my teammates, because of asthma attack, on the swim. yeach....that was definitely not comforting. other than that, i thanked GOD for taking care of my teammates.
here's a pic from the race....
