The best swim of Jen Annett91裸聊视频檚 triathlon career led to her fifth overall finish at July 30 in Whistler.

Annett, a native of Kelowna, complete the 2.4-mile swim in 58 minutes, 32 seconds, and finished second among female pros.

It91裸聊视频檚 definitely my biggest weakness. For me to finally break that one hour mark is amazing.91裸聊视频

Annett speaks with Triathlon Magazine Canada about her race.

Getting out of the water up to five minutes faster than usual meant the Penticton resident could spend less time on the bike or run trying to make up time. She also felt it was a motivating, encouraging factor as well to be able to come out that much closer. Annett then gained traction on the bike finishing that portion of the course in 5:08:30, and completed the run in 3:14:48 for a total time of 9:24:55.

American Linsey Corbin won in 9:17:12.

Annett said it was pretty amazing to get results as she had been training all year.

Annett said Rachel McBride led most of the race until Corbin caught her on the run, which proved her to be one of the strongest runners in the field. McBride settled for third, finishing in 9:27:15.

The next event for Annett is the International Triathlon Union Multisport World Championship Festival in Penticton later this month. With the work she has done, Annett now considers herself up there with the top female pros.
