Speaking of Tiger Angel

We travelled to the regatta centre this morning at the much more sleep-friendly time of 6:30 for the All Womens' Triathlon (along with Cheri & Rachel - CR's wildthing and mouse - and their doting entourages). Tiger angel has been quietly and slowly ramping things up, so while she's still only up to the enticer length (250/10k/2.5k), she was really relaxed going into it, and with good reason.

We don't know the times yet (if ever - tri NSW was the organiser, and they don't have a history of being particularly well organised :-) ) because both of us forgot to start our watches, and the various waves went off at random times. However, by looking at the time stamps on photos that I took at the start and end, it appears that she's pulled another 30 seconds or so off last month's record breaker! What's far, far better though is that when she finished, she just sat down and started chatting about the race and all the things that had happened like she'd just been for a stroll around the park with friends.

Talk about stoked! It was only the other day that I said to her "I can't wait for the day that you can go for an hour's run and then say 'That was fun. Well, what's next?'", and only a few days later, here we are. The strategy has been for a long slow redevelopment, but it is clearly paying off in spades, so there's no reason to go changing it now.

Anyhow, no tri report would be complete without a photo, so here's the water exit.
