Yesterday it was finally time for our benchmark! We changed the date for this many times, but it's nice that we still did it. At 7 o'clock we were all ready at the swimming pool. I am not a fan of mornings swim but it wasn't so bad. The water was surprisingly warmer then I thought and it was nice to swim in a broad lane. The whole 1,9 km I swam with the breaststroke, no problem with that. In 56 minutes was the job done :) Not especially tired or something just done the job. Next time I really hope that I can do the same distance in free-style, that should go a lot faster then \o/ . At one o'clock we left for our 90 km road bike trip. It was rainy and wet and my brakes didn't work well, so it was a slow trip, more then 4 hours we were on our bicycles. We toke some breaks to have something to eat, but still it was a long long trip. Maybe in the top 5 of my longest trips during this year.
When we left for the half marathon, the knee of colleague started to give some resistance and after 6 km we had to stop running. It doesnot matter, my legs felt nice after the biketrip and that was the most thing of the trip, the first kilometers of the running felt a little stange but after that no problem.
So I got really excited and when I am excited I do something :) . I plan to start at the Olympic distance at the triathlon of Kuopio!

Let's wait and see!
