Completed the Hyde Park Sprint Triathlon in 1:42:10 in the end, which didn't quite get me under 1:30 as I had hoped, but beat last year's time by 3 whole minutes - gotta be pleased with that! :) My other target was to swim the whole of the 750m entirely with front crawl and I aced that one, so all that swim training definitely paid dividends.

My times were as follows:

Swim - 16:55

Trans 1 - 5:46 (what was I doing, having tea?)

Bike - 46:03

Trans 2 - 2:49

Run - 30:39

Overall - 1:42:10
