Yes, shockingly, I was placed 4th in F 30-34.  Then we found out that the other lady that was way in ahead of me fainted during the run, and so I race.
Yes, shockingly, I was placed 4th in F 30-34. Then we found out that the other lady that was way in ahead of me fainted during the run, and so I race.  It was a very “hot” race.  There werent any shades on both the bike and the run course.  I got blisters on both my feet because my socks and shoes were wet from splashing water over my head.  Lesson learned.!  Not sure if I have the courage to do this race again.  Although I really enjoyed the swim here versus the one in Hualien.  I learned to start from the very back and avoid the crowd.  I was swimming with those with buoy.  I was shock to see some people actually use the buoy as a flotation device during the swim.  Is this still a race?
