The Columbia Triathlon is two days away. And given that my training this year has been less than stellar, not to mention less than normal for me, and given what I wrote after last year’s race , “…Looking at my watch during the final half mile, I suddenly think I have a shot at 2:39:xx, a time that has been my ultimate goal for about 3 years. I tell myself that if I push hard enough I might be able to reach it. And if I do…well, that just may be the best I could ever do on this course and I’ll never have to worry about racing it hard again.”, I suppose I have no choice but to race for “fun” this year. That’s hard to do. I’ve done it before, especially during the 2007 Challenge but it’s still hard when you’re competitive with yourself. But add in the forecasted rain and I think I have no choice and can eliminate any pressure to do well (for me).
But still, I don’t want it to be my worst time at Columbia.
