I got the official results from my first triathlon of the season.  Once again, I came in last place, of three men.  Things aren’t all bad though.  If I focus this week, I might be able to get second place!

My official results:

• 13 laps in the pool = 650 yards
• 6.4 miles on the stationary bike
• 20 laps on the indoor track = 2 miles

Have I mentioned that I love this stuff!

Just to be clear, I’ve had two races and two last place finishes, my season can only get better from here right?

I have only once dealt with chafing on my nipples, it was a new shirt that hadn’t been washed yet and was a little scratchy.  This weekend I learned how seriously uncomfortable chafing could be.  Today the inside of my legs have 2×2 patches that look like and feel like red sandpaper.  The burning sensation is like somebody poured Tabasco sauce on an open wound.  On top of that, a quick Google told me that “..chafing is a signal that it is time to lose weight” which made it even worse.  I’m over twenty pounds lighter than I was this time last year.  It’s becoming more and more obvious that the scale isn’t telling the entire story.
