The triathlon was a great experience. I got pushed under water at the start and breathed in a lot of water which wasn’t nice because I started coughing and it took quite some time to find a nice rhythm after that. The bike was the most fun. Although there was one steep small mountain which we had to pass over twice which was tough. The run was not fun because I suffered a lot. I had stitches and I hadn’t eaten enough carbohydrates so I was really struggling. But running was still my strongest discipline. I finished 44th out of a couple of hundred which was good for a first timer, and considering that I started training from zero in December. I look forward to competing more often in future. I recovered very quickly so it’s not a problem to combine it with racing.
