Race Recap: SheRox Triathlon Bermuda 2012

Last Sunday I crossed the finish line of SheRox Triathlon Bermuda! I had such a great time on the island for the race. Plus, I did my personal best in a sprint tri! The course was the most challenging yet most beautiful that I have ever participated in. The water was clear blue and the scenes on the bike and the run course were a stunning panoramic of the island's coast! The bike and the run were quite hilly but the views made it worth it. 

I will be posting more details about the race weekend soon including a past party the night before and a cocktail reception the night of the race but thought I'd start the series of posts with photos of each stage of the race. 

She Swims. She Bikes. She Runs. She Rox.

My parents came to cheer me on! This is us before the start.

That's me- running on the sand exiting the swim!

I'm off on the start of the 12 mile bike ride(mostly up hill!)

One of my best friends, Maura, met me at the finish line! 

Two crazy fans kept us all motivated
