Time? It was really crap haha. 5:56:03 to be precise. Like I said, I didn't train for it. All I did leading up to it was a couple of runs, and a couple of swims. But I do crossfit 6 times a week and that got me through it. Given I can't swim freestyle and had to swim breaststroke for 1.9km, and the last time I rode more than 50km was over 10 years ago, I think I did alright!
Btw, this was Challenge Melb the week before and not the Geelong one. Conditions were a killer - 39 degrees day. It was like 30 degrees by like 10am or something like that. They even offered shorter distance but I decided to do the full distance.
You still doing ironman?
