Hooray !! Finally! After a month of training I was able to finish the Akashi TokiKando Aquathlon in Akashi! I finished the 500 meter swim in 17 minutes and the 5K run in 40 minutes! I was so surprised at how difficult it was to run right after swimming! BUT I’m so happy my friends cheered me on until the very end!!!!

Check out all the RACE day action from the exciting swim to my emotional victory speech after crossing the finish line!!! This was an amazing experience in such a beautiful location, Okurakaigan beach in Akashi City! Will I level up next year? We just have to wait and see! Do you think you could do this aquathlon?! Let me know in the comments!
