Lake Saint Louis
Saturday, September 03, 2005
The Lake St. Louis Triathlon was the third leg of the 2005 Olympic Distance Triple Crown that included Memphis In May and The Chicago Triathlon. Since this is where it all began a couple of years ago, this race will always have a special place in all of our hearts.
Ultramax took over the event this year and increased the distances to a .93 mile swim, a 24.9 and a 6.2 mile run. I was working off of one weeks rest after Chicago. The field was loaded with friends and rivals. Weather was very warm. They told us that the wate temp was 85 so I did not wear a wetsuit. It felt like 75 degrees - I should have put it on.
Strugled on the swim a little bit. Hammered hard on the bike and had an okay run. Here are my results of the day:
Swim: 34:34
Bike: 1:32:51 (includes T1)
Avg: 16.0
Run: 49:02
Avg: 7:55
Total Time: 2:56:27
