2006 Memphis In May Triathlon
Sunday, May 21, 2006
Another great weekend getaway to Memphis In May for an Olympic Distance Triathlon featuring a 1.5K swim, a 40K bike and a 10K run. Once again, the combination of good friends, a good race and good barbecue made this a weekend to remember.

My overall time for Memphis was 2:42:30 which was a nice improvement over my 2005 time of 2:44:43. Here is my year to year comparison:
Swim Time: 27:13 vs. 31:58
T1: 3:10 vs. 2:23 (I did not wear a wetsuit last year)
Bike: 1:16:47 (19.1 mph) vs. 1:13:42 (19.9 mph)
T2: 2:21 vs. 2:21
Run: 53:01 (8:33) vs. 54:21 (8:46 avg)
Masters swim obviously helped out but I am not so sure why my bike was slower - maybe because I have not done a significant amount of biking yet. Happy with my run time considering how hot it was out there.
