Indianapolis Sprint Triathlon Series - TriathlonSprint

horse shoe on a lake. I wasn't swimming well at all and had trouble navigating so I breast stroked a lot. I actually moved well and straight when I got close enough to the buoys that I could reach for them.

I caught a couple of short drafts, but could not control my speed well enough not to run over them so I backed out each time

Nothing really other than working on my swim more and try to find some open water groups to swim with. In spite of the pathetic time, I think that I am finally understanding this sport

I ran past the start transition and had a little trouble getting my feet on top of my shoes and some guy ran in front of me and stopped so I had to stop and start again

Practice, Practice, Practice

I really need to practice my running start and getting my feet into my shoes on the roll. Particularly paying attention to not losing contact with the shoe.

practice getting into shoes before hand

could not seem to get my Zoots on. I elected to go sockless this time and they were difficult. Pulled the string to tight that caused me to have to stop twice during the run to keep them from hitting the ground and annoying the crap out of me

lube my shoes and not pull laces near as hard

I really need to start doing speed work and running with a group

preperation

not being on my game when I got up (re think night before and get as much ready 2 night before as possible) in adequate preperation


my hat is off once again to Tuxedo Bros - another great event in the bag
