I competed the Give-It-A-Tri race on Toronto Island this past Saturday and had a great time doing it!

Here are my stats:

Place	Name	Bib#	Time	Category	Category Place	400m SWIM Cat Ovr Time /100m	10 km BIKE Cat Ovr Time km/h	2.5 km RUN Cat Ovr Time /km	Tr1	Tr2
275	Alison CHEN	308	0:56:01.2	F25-29	26/52	13 317 14:43 3:41	13 282  24:08 24.9	13 163 13:34 5:26	2:44	0:55

It doesn’t seem like a huge achievement for me, right now, but when I think of the past years when I was too afraid to even think about doing it, I can see how far I’ve come. I think I may even do another one next year, and possibly a Sprint Triathlon!

Here are the different types of Triathlons:

Sprint 0.75 km swim, 22km bike ride, 5km run
Olympic 1.5km swim, 40km bike, 10km run
Half-Ironman 1.2 miles swim, 56 miles bike, 13.1 miles run
Ironman 2.4 miles swim, 112 miles bike, 26.2 miles run (yes, that’s a marathon)

Thanks again for all the support. And a special thanks to Zev for doing the race with me (and waiting for me at the transitions site) and Jon for coming out to cheer us on!
