SGTri - Sprint Course - TriathlonSprint

Swimming is mike weak point, just keep practicing, signed up for the STG Irom man 2012, mucn work to do.

Catching water, need practice

*Note, had wet suit strippers on the boat ramp, had them strip the suit. Likely save a few seconds. My previous open water Tri was exhausted after the swim, good energy after the swim on this Tri.

Nothing

Happy wiht the bike placing - bike crash at the sprint turnaround, about 30 feet ahend of me, a lady was passing (doing the Olypic distance, and a guy durin the sprint turned around, she went down hard swearing at the rider. From my point of view, both were at fault, her not anticpating the sprint U turn and him not looking before turning.

Push the hills harder, could have save a couple of minutes, lost third place by three minutes, could have made it closer with a harder bike, I will never let up on the bike again for a sprint.

Had new tri shoes and pedals, not yet broke end, almost biffed in getting out the pedals before the no bike line, I really need to practice on transistion.

Lock shoes in the shoes in the pedal and put them on during the bike.

Need work, guts, guts, guts.

Do pickups during the run, this would help gain time.

Kept on my feet, walking and drinking, talking to other athletes.


Knees.


Good race, scary downhill, bikers going 40 mph or faster, accross a cattle gaurd, could have some real trouble, there should be a not pass zone for 50 yrds before the cattle gaurd.
