The Sun Devil Classic in Tribute to Hannah Henry was supposed to be a triathlon, but heavy rains led to water discharges in the lower Salt River dams, and the water quality (and opacity) in Tempe Town Lake meant it was switched to a duathlon. Not my favorite, as the swim is my (relatively) best event, but I've had a long recovery from the flu and it's probably best I wasn't in the water - especially not that water.
It was a beautiful day once the sun came up, and while the race was a slog - OK run 1, satisfactory bike, OK transitions, and a not great run 2 where I had to run-walk the 5K - I'm in a great age group, and finished 3rd AG (even ahead of the guy who finished fourth). I'll take it. Results here:
Run1 11:02.7
T1 3:50.8
Bike 49:21.6
T2 4:26.5
Run2 38:29.4
Division 3/4, 71/72 gender, 118/120 overall
