Trigirl put her months of training to the test today by completing the London Triathlon 2009 in 2:59:13. For the first time, she raced at Olympic distance, comprising:swim 1500m in 41:14
bike 40K in 1:20:27
run 10K in 48:28
She is really pleased that she managed to sneak in under the three-hour mark, and is delighted with her 10K run time - a pb!

Well done! I'm impressed. I struggle to do my 45 minutes on the cross trainer regulary but watch Leah and Kiera a lot when they are at the gym, netball and swimming.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday (belatedly) to the Junior Trigirls - we were in Germany at the time celebrating my nephew's birthday.
