This is a test
My time in Germany..... Sunday was the 2007 ITU Age Group World Championship Triathlon in Hamburg, Germany. Jude and I were able to get away together for this great adventure. I was very happy I bought two rain ponchos for the trip, as we used them in the cold, rainy weather the first two days we were there. Hamburg is a great place, and we enjoyed seeing the city and meeting other athletes on Team USA. I was very happy that the weather was good for race day - no rain and cool temperatures made for perfect conditions for racing. The race was a success, as I went hard, kept a positive attitude, and had fun! I was 9th in my age group and 85th overall. My results were not what I had hoped for (I wanted to win my age group), but the experience was amazing, and once again I was so honored to represent the United States in another great race. I am hopeful that I can improve next year in all the races that I do. |
