12665-061-006fLast weekend I did the bike leg of a triathlon with a Relay team from ESPN. I did a triathlon relay about 15 years ago, so this was my first step into the triathlon world in a long time. I didn’t know what to expect, but I ended up doing a pretty good bike time considering the hilly course. Our team finished 2nd out of 8 mixed relay teams. My bike split was the best of the relay teams, and about 8th best of everyone in the race. I will be doing another relay at the New York Triathlon in July. that course will be more flat, but will have many more participants.
