Met up with the St George Tri-Club tonight out at Sand Hollow Reservoir.  I did a total of 0.9 mile swim.  I did a 0.4 mile warm-up with Cathy without the wetsuit.  It took us about 20 minutes to complete the distance.  That was her first time swimming a long distance in open water.  She was disoriented the entire time.  She may have swam more distance than me if you count all the circles she did around me... :)  When the club showed up, I joined the group that did the 0.5 mile loop.  My time was 13:48.  My goal is 0.5 mile in 10:00.

We then jumped on our bikes and completed the sprint section of the triathlon course (12 miles).  I forgot to time it, but I did get my time on the way back of approximately 17 minutes.  I figured I did the distance around my standard race time of 35-36 minutes.

I then jumped into my running shoes and did the dam trail.  The distance is 1.1 miles across.  My time was 8:30 across and 8:09 back with an average pace of 7:35.

Went to Del Taco afterwards.... :) :) :)

That is seriously well-earned taco. Way to go today.
