Triathlon in Sestroretsk.

Competitions for the Russian Triathlon Cup were held in Sestroretsk on Saturday and Sunday (плавание, bicycle, run). Since I live nearby, then came to the awards ceremony to 16 watch on a scooter.

I would like to come earlier to see how people overcome themselves, but on weekends I sleep for a long time, so it didn't work. By the way, Grigory Isaev took part in the competition, also known as true-flipper" in LJ. Showed a pretty good result, заняв eighth place in its age category.

Here's his result. I figured out how I would perform if I participated:
Бег 10 km I usually run in an hour and ten to twenty minutes, but it's not really in a hurry. Think, in a competition could run in exactly one hour. Bike 40 I would probably have traveled a km in two hours since my bike is not a sports bike, and tourist. But about swimming, понятия не имею. Like, I swim normally, but never swam at speed. Well, if Grigory Isaev swims 1.5 km for 25 minutes, then we will assume that I will swim in minutes 40. Total, the whole distance is obtained 3:40 which is about one and a half times worse than the result of an average triathlete. All in all, quite normal :)

But, I think, it would be nice to add roller skates and a scooter to the eventing. Truth, then there will already be a pentathlon :)
