Yesteday was Race Day for The Remlingers.
I can honestly say this was the first time I actually almost backed out of doing a race. I wasn't worried about the course or race itself, I just hated how freakin' cold it was. It only got up to a high (in the afternoon) of 50 degrees. I don't like to be cold and I dreaded that cold wet bike ride/run after the swim. The pool itself was heated to about 80 degrees so it felt wonderful to get in it. For once, I actually wished the swim was longer. When I got out I was wet and cold for the rest of the race. I do have to admit that maybe it helped with my time because it was faster than I have ever done. But I think I am still thawing out my fingers and toes today, though.
So the results came back and diaper duty for the week goes to....
me.
Paul beat me by 5 minutes. 1:37 for Paul and 1:42 for me.
But I actually raced in a different division and I placed 2nd in my division. So while Paul can go and "talk" about beating my time, I can actually show-off my hardware. Yep since I placed I got a medal to take home! whoot-whoot.
