Back in July (on the 28th in fact) I brought home a first place medal from the Admiral's Cup Triathlon. Overall, I placed 10th; in my age group, I came in first place!
I started training for and competing in triathlon 7 years ago, and it was quite special to "hit that mark" on one Saturday in July. I was surprised, I admit, that I came in first; this has been a tough year for training as we're starting up our new business, and I'm traveling a bit more sporadically than ever before.
Regardless, on that Saturday I had a great race. Not only was the day PERFECT (see the other picture below), the race course and organization was well put-together. This is a race I've done before, though I'd never placed this high in the rankings.




Way to go, man!

Congratulations, Jason! That is quite an accomplishment. I must admit that your blog has been inspirational for me lately. I was doing quite well on the workout track and then things got busy and I fell off the wagon. Just got a new pair of running shoes for a little additional motivation and plan on getting back on track (literally!) today. Thanks for sharing!!! Cheers...Chris
