100 Triathlons
Go to the early blogs to read how I got into triathlons. Click on any picture to enlarge it. "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood...who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly." Theodore Roosevelt 1910

# 184 Crystal River Sprint Triathlon

Triathlon #184 is done on October 15. Got up at 2:00 AM to drive to Crystal River on the Gulf of Mexico. Fourth place out of eight in Male 65-69; ten entered. Too many fast old guys in Florida! 

Ok swim with a strong tide, fast 15 mile bike averaging 18.5 mph and solid 5k run. 15 mph headwind out on the bike course but I was rolling at 22+ on the way back. The run is a bit odd as the road is heavily slanted on the curves. Very happy results!

Ready to go!
