At 9am in a windy and wet Copenhagen, Ali experienced his 1st triathlon. He was kicked in the face and punched while in the swim but came out the water ready to face the windy cycle. He improved his position with a strong ride and improved again in the run despite being sick 3 times - salt water from the swim! The results aren't in yet but perhaps about 15th which will be in the top half of the field. He certainly didn't enjoy the swim but I think he may have the bug - proud of his achievement.
My turn tomorrow and the rest of today will be preparing my equipment into the appropriate bags, eating, resting and going over the plan for the day. I'll give a final report before the race tonight. Remember you can track my progress on the day. Go to the Challenge Copenhagen website and follow the instructions - my race number is 1658.
