Race Day Pics

 Checking my watch after the swim.

On the bike, sans sunglasses. This is as good as it gets for me in terms of a cleavage shot these days. I like that my drink matches my shirt. These things are important.

Focused on getting through the run.
Below: Not too happy with my finish. No smiles here! I also look fat. Figures.

I like the swim skin.

Kim said...

Well I for one think you look ridiculously fit, lean and toned.

Please pass me some of that.

you don't even look sweaty in the run picture, were you really dehydrated? I still think you did amazing under all those circumstances, you are in the groove my friend.

John said...

At least it's cleavage, right? :)

Ewa said...

Cool pics. You look very determined.
You run with two watches? So do I. I bought Polar ages ago and just cannot give it up but it is missing a GPS. I wear mine on both wrists.

You DO NOT look fat!

Keith said...

Look like a well deserved finisher to me.

You do not look fat!! I was just looking at the pictures thinking, " I want to look like that!!!" Way to go and I loved the pictures and how toned you look!!!

Running and living said...

You look the same in all pics - strong, strong, strong! I love the purple, by the way!

@ Kim. Ahh. Thanks.
@Donna... I wasn't sweating toward the end, but I was sweaty in this picture. My shirt is 100% soaking wet and I had a film of sweat...
@John. Not even, really! If you look you can the the tiny tinniest of lines indicating maybe I have enough boob to fill at pre-teen bra. But thanks, anyway...
@Ewa. Oh, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who does that! For me it's that I want to know my swim split, and I can't wear the Garmin in the water. Also, it is a quick look to see my overall time. It's not necessary, but I've done it for awhile...@ Keith. THanks. I agree. I did deserve to finish--I deserved to finish five minutes earlier! :)

Regina said...

Fat? As if. Nice photos, you look very fit.

Emilie said...

I loved reading your race report and seeing the pictures. You are so strong and inspiring.

I love your blog and don't comment much, but I do have to say this: why the fat comment? I remember a post a while ago where you referred to yourself as chubby and then realized that isn't the kind of talk our daughters needed to hear. You look amazing! Just a thought.

maria conley said...

Fat!! Where I don't see it. You are so freaking fit is not even funny.

Unknown said...

YOU are so strong! I cracked up that you didn't smile at your finish time...always wanting to work harder and do better! Love that.

Swimming for ME said...

But WAIT!! You are not smiling on the bike picture. I thought you always smiled for those pics :)

GetBackJoJo said...

@Alina. I would've smiled if I had seen the camera, but I had no sunglasses and was half blind! :)
