# 206 Clermont Sprint Triathlon in June

Never was a person happier finishing 5th out of 6 in a triathlon then me today (my #206). After three months of health issues and 8 weeks of no training, I approached this race cautiously and was ecstatic over the results! Hot weather was a factor as it was 75’f at 5:30 AM when I arrived and 94’f in the sun for the run leg. I did this same race in October and today my swim was 3 minutes slower (shoulder issue), bike was .3 mph faster and run was very hot with my overall time of 1:21:05 six minutes behind last year. Lots of friends there; Kerry Simmons was 1st Female overall (at 58) with Teresa Tinsley in third. Kevin Simmons won the Aquabike. Dawn Lane won Female 60-64 with Tiger Lassa in second by 13 seconds. My dentist, Dr. Sarah Day got second in International Distance Female 50-54 and Bill Black finished third in Clydesdale 40+.
