I ran the race for 25.20, according to my watch. Will see what the
official results are, next week.

Congratulations. I certainly hope you had better weather than we're having
around here. It's rained everyday this week except yesterday

Congrats on your first race. I know that any first is a big step and I
think it is great that you did this. Do you plan to run competitively on a
regular basis?

I think it's great that you not only had the guts to drag yourself to
the starting line but you also ran what looks to me like a pretty solid race,
given what your expectations were going into it.

How was the race anyway ? are you going to post a report for us ?

Cheers,

not sure how these guys do it this time of year, the water is in the
low 70's. I'd freeze in that temp. :-)

That's bathwater temp in Maine! lol We wouldn't know how to act if the
beach water was that warm - in August! g

Amen girl! I vacation a little south of Portland each August and the
water temp is 62-65 at best.
My gut says if I was up near Acadia the temps might shrink even
more. Not to play with the word shrink
but Seinfeld's show on shrinkage rings true in Casco Bay.

Not bad! Congratulations.

DH and I were talking last night as we watched the news about a
triatholon that was in the area over the weekend. For me, the
running (right now with the knee) would keep me from a tri. For him
it would be the swimming.


You could enter as a relay team with a third person. Our triathalons up
here are swim, mountain bike, run and I formed a team with two other women
to do so this summer. I'm the mountain biker since I'm not a fast runner
and I pretty much have no fear of the trails.

Way to go Ig,

A little over 3 miles in 25.20. Not bad for a beginner...lol. I ran a
19:15 once in the Marines when I was in the best shape of my life. Now it
takes me about 45 minutes to walk...lol.

Keep up the good work,

this knee pain under control to the point I can go running again, that
would be my next task to undertake. :-)
