Laguna Phuket Triathlon

1.8k Swim, 55k Bike, 12k Run

With the Bangkok airports being closed Ramiro, Bonnie, Bryce and Kookai loaded up the car and drove to Phuket. It has been nice to have the car but we did not want to drive back.
Phuket is a very hilly beach resort Island. Beautiful beaches and beautiful lush hills set for a postcard. That is till you are actually supposed to ride them in tomorrows triathlon.
We both finished and set "Personal Best's" not hard to do since we never concord this course before. Ramiro broke his rear bike wheel at 8k of 55k and his shoe separated as he tried to dismount at the bike finish, aka not such a good bike. The swim was great as it spans two bodies of water the Andaman Sea and a lagoon. Different and fun since in the middle of the swim you get out and run up the sandy hill. Many people were stumbling there way across.

The run was nice. Two laps of the Laguna Phuket Golf Course, a world class golf course. The best part was they gave out ice cold sponges...take your breath away when your not expecting the cold chill.All in all a challenging and fun Tri.
