22??? more like 22.4 buttmunch .4 is a lot to short me on time and wiener size
The second half had hills, and nasty wind. It would have been cool to see what it would have been without the wind as the hills you can't change. Here is a web picture of a cool dude taking some pain on one of the little hills. I even had to get out of the saddle for this one, cant see the bottome with the curve in the road.

Oscar, How many miles was the bike part of your tri?
With hills and running solo without draft legal 16.4 is not too shabby either if you don't bike much. Biking seems to use a lot different muscle groups than running and more resembles hiking IMO.
Now it's time to transition to more hiking time. Gotta get the ankles and feet in better shape before Elk season

My undergrad advisor thought the same thing and he'd climbed above 20K multiple times. He's knees couldn't take running, but felt that biking worked the same basic muscles needed for climbing hills.
