When I finished my marathon, the first thought that crossed my mind was, "Wow!!! I did it!" and the second was, "I bet I could beat my time". So I can see how, after training for something and not making your desired pace how you could be disappointed.
However, may I say how impressed I am that you've done not one, but 2 triathlons! Additionally, the more you do, the more data you have for your next ones. Where are your weak spots? What can you do to improve? Do you really need to work on improving or were you just having an off day?
And finally, my words of personal wisdom are these, "I personally keep getting paced with the "Over 65" category and so I now am mostly determined to just make sure that I can keep it up through the time when I'm Over 65 and then maybe I'll win some awards..."
