Yesterday, I competed in Ironman Lake Placid with a main goal to finish the race and put the 2010 demons to rest. What happened was completely unexpected. I won my age group by 18 minutes with a time of 10:32:44 - my fastest Ironman by 27 minutes. The biggest surprise was my 2.4-mile swim time of 1:02 - only 3 minutes slower than last year. It was surprising in that I haven't swam over 2600 yards in a single workout since I broke my rib in mid-May.
