I competed in the Door County Triathlon on July 19, 2014. This was a sprint triathlon, the half-iron triathlon was on the 20th. I swam a quarter mile, then biked 18 miles and finally ran a 5 K. I finished in 1:57:01, which was better than I expected.

- A few miles into the bike ride
-
- This was in the first mile of the 5 K – my legs were kind of tired after the bike ride.

- As you can tell, I didn’t comb my hair in the T-2 transition!

- At the finish line – 1:57:01
-
- A successful first triathlon!
