Light jogging, a few quick sprints, especially for pre-race potty stops. Also light swim warmup.

Comments:

Tough swim as far as elbows, knees and feet are concerned. Glad that was finally
What would you do differently?:

Train! Having a tough time getting myself to the pool lately. Performance was good for the amount of swim workouts I do, but not good oveall.

Very happy wtih transition.

Always try to go faster.

Comments:

Took a long time to get up to speed. A little tired from the swim. Didn't even notice until race was over, but I hardly drank on the bike. Probably not much difference since race was so short.
What would you do differently?:

Train more intervals, be more careful to drink more consistently. Also more aggressive on turns, although they're getting better.
Transition 2
  • 00m 48s
Comments:

Not quite sure why this transition was so slow. This was my first attempt to run without socks. Obviously faster than when I do put on socks, but I guess I was expecting better.
What would you do differently?:

Go a little faster out of transition once shoes are on.

Have done this race either as duathlon or triathlon many times. Very comfortable with the course, although there are lots of turns.
