Dubai 70.3 done! The day came with a few issues. I really enjoyed a beautiful swim in the Arabian Sea. Then unfortunately, my brake rubbed the entire bike ride making me feel like I was cycling through peanut butter 🥜 (Which is one of my favorite foods so I guess there’s always a positive side to things)....

I also have been dealing with recurrent vomiting only on the bike portions of my races. I’ve been going through a process of elimination to figure out the issue. Diet is all but ruled out at this point. Current hypothesis is that my bike position is too aggressive, crunching my stomach and preventing me from taking in fuel properly.

Has anyone else experienced this before? I’m eager to get to the bottom of it! 😅

Finished off my race giving what I had left to the run course and appreciating the experience. I knew it was a crazy fast course when I somehow still managed a 4:25 😂. Wow, there are no shortage of challenges in this sport, right?!

I guess that’s why we keep coming back ☺️.

I’m a little tired physically and mentally now, but I’m looking forward to a couple days sightseeing in the UAE and then getting ready for what’s next! Happy to get 2020 started regardless 💥.
