What comfort zone?

Posted under Races and Results by Donna

I’m trying new things all the time so the nerves of the unknown are becoming familiar.  They’re not always welcome- I didn’t like feeling the jellyfish brush past my arm whilst swimming at the beach, or riding downhill around the bends as fast as I could before the faster pack of guys behind caught me. 

The most important thing I’ve noticed is the benefit of having other people to train with.  I’ve met some really great people and on the whole I’m loving it.  I can run on my own but without the group I would not be as active. 

There is another triathlon in Hobart tomorrow.  I am not ready to race the Olympic distance yet (1.5km swim, 40km ride, 10km run) so I will stick with the ’sprint’ (750m swim, 20km ride, 5km run).
