icelandic trigirl Mar 2013 1:05pm, 17 Mar 2013 33 posts	0 icelandic trigirl I won, I won! To put this in context, there were only 5 women, but it still counts, right? There were only 11 seconds between me and the next girl, who isn't a great swimmer but a really fast runner. She beat me by about 2 minutes last year so that is a great improvement in my run time Swim: 7.00 Run: 13.31 Transition: a little over 1 minute, not sure exactly but will find out later. It was a LONG way from the pool to the treadmills that included lots of stairs. I now have a lovely medal which has a picture of skiers on the front: downhill, cross-country and jumps: some mix up with the skiclub. I can guarantee I will never have another medal like it Thanks for all your encouragement! And Ymee, if you fancy racing in Iceland, the pools are outdoor but they are filled with nice hot water.

Ymee Mar 2013 1:30pm, 17 Mar 2013 27 posts	0 Ymee FANTASTIC! Well done, Trigirl Am very impressed by the ski medal too! We're looking at trying to sort our summer holiday out today as it happens. I could cope with the warm water...less sure about the sub-zero transition!

icelandic trigirl Mar 2013 6:15pm, 17 Mar 2013 34 posts	0 icelandic trigirl Just got the final times: 21.29 total which means 58 second transition. Not bad! I persuaded (foolishly!) the girl who came second to join our swim training, so I'm going to have really work on my run for next year!
