Naperville Duathlon 2019- WIN!

Yesterday was the 2019 Naperville Du race. I wasn't feeling it in the morning, but somehow once the race got under way, I started feeling stronger and stronger. I got a second wind on the final leg of the bike and picked it up to go into T2.  Coming out on the run, I just focused on breathing and couldn't find a good rhythm.  I generally like to have a song in my head but it was way too hard to think about music. I had no idea where I was in the standings but I knew I was near the front, so I just kept pushing hard right through to the finish where I nearly collapsed. But it was all worth it because I won overall! So cool!.
