Just a short while ago Sooke held a half Ironman. Lynn and Myron were eager to try the distance. Lynn is preparing for IM west Australia and Myron was testing the waters of the half ironman distance.
In short both enjoyed the day!!! Great conditions to race and the course was great!
Lynn finished the course in 6:30 with a 32 min swim, 3:29 bike and a 2:22 run. Well done Lynn!
Myron started the day with a 28 min swim placing him 5th overall, and then he was off on the bike. After a short time he encountered a slight problem. He broke his chain. So he waited along side of the road for the van and they told him they could not touch his bike but they could tell him how to fix the broken chain. He just happened to have a repair tool with him. After about an hour he was good to go and finished the bike in 3:57, then finished the run in 1:47 and finished just in front of lynn at 6:18.
How many of you out there would have taken the time to fix your chain??? Great job Lynn and Myron and the lesson here is: maybe look online to see how to repair your chain just in case.....
