Did the Wurst Tri Ever yesterday. About 10 miles into the ride I took a 90 degree corner too fast and went down. Bent my derailer and handle bars. Road rash down the right side of my body and what doctors think is a fractured elbow.
Jumped back up on my bike (yay adrenaline!) and finished the ride in the only gear that my bike would go in. Did the run holding my arm while dropping blood. And got my medal dammit.
Ended up averaging 15 mph on the bike, 15th in my age group, and 202nd overall. Not too shabby.
In any case, looks like I will not be doing the Austin 70.3 which sucks. The brighter side is that now I have my Saturday's back! Y'all stay safe out there! Learn from me, and slow down on your turns!
