Triathlon Blunders

We've all been there, you can admit it!  Don't you love that feeling of being the rookie?  I'm a rookie at the beginning of every triathlon season even if it's my 25th season in the game.  But as long as we can look back and laugh about it we're all good!  I remember crossing the finish line of a duathlon and I was so tired because the winds were so strong and happy to cross the finish line that I forgot to clip out when I stopped and fell right over!  Then two helpful spectators felt sorry for me and came over to help but didn't get that I was still clipped in and were trying to rip my bike apart from me! :-)

Yup been there!

Ever eat a full meal in transition?

Ha!  This screams Ironkids Nationals for me in Dallas about 20 year ago we saw kids like this and it was so intimidating at the time.

I don't do tris, but if I did I am sure I would make all those mistakes :)
