Wicksteed Park Novice Triathlon - Triathlon

Push and stretch put more, try to draft.

Try helmet on suit off

Took about 8 km to get up to speed and feel comfortable

road bike and shoes would be a must. Get up to speed and recover after swim quicker.

Try transition from road cycling shoes

Nice course round lake but struggled with knee.

Practice running grass and protect knee, not be too timid at beginning, stretch out more.

tracksuit on, stretches


Absence of road bike, concern about running out of puff.


Started late, one drinks station, lake full of weeds with dangerous entry/exit plus run up stony path to T1. Many problems with timing chips.
