Trek Women's 2009 Triathlon Series-Pleasant Prairie, WI

Well, I did my third sprint distance triathlon yesterday! Despite getting lost a lot (trying to get there and home) and having another flat tire the night before, it went very smoothly. I even got an awesome hotel (the Marriot!) for $57 on priceline.com.

Here's my stats:
Overall time = 1:52:21
Overall Place = 1691 / 2544
Swim Time (1/2 mile swim) = 16:54
Swim Rank = 699 / 2544
Transition 1 time (time to get dried off and put on my bike gear) = 6: 46
Bike Time (12 mile bike) = 46:07
Transition 2 time = 3:54
Run time (3.1 miles) = 38:37

(So, if I didn't have to transition and you counted just my time racing, it was 1:42:21.)

Here's the photos:
