Green Bay Triathlon - Olympic - TriathlonOlympic

They did not show individal results for each stage this year.I used my heart rate monitor to keep me from going crazy. Watched a life guard dive in after someone.

Use my ear plugs to stop me getting Dizzy

The talc powder in my socks really helped my wet feet go into them. Extra time was taken putting my arm warmers on. A little dissapointed they did not score T1.

Put talc in my arm warmers?

Again the results did not show individal rankin. I felt good. I made myself go slow the first half and then had some great sprints the second half. Knocked off about 10 mins from last year. It started out with drizzle and cold but after while the sun cleared. I caught alot of people on this route. I dropped my second GU gel pack...whoops

Take more Gel than i am going to use in case i drop one again.

I still will not jump off the bike. Just feel it is too dangerous for me anyway. I left T2 with my gloves on as i thought i was going to be colder than it was on the run. I always get cold hands.

Leave gloves in T2

So i set out to keep my HR around 130BPM. I do not know what is is about races but it so easy to run harder and not feel as much pain. i pushed it up to 140 BPM after 2k. I was still feeling good. SO i kept it at 148BPM until 7K point. I was overtaking people!! After the 7K i kept it to 160BPM was was my top limit for sure. I fully enjoyed the run and felt like i was going fast. No problems hurting or cramps afterwards. I knocked off 9 mins from last year!!

NOTHING i was very pleased with the run.

Got some water, PB and J


My weight is higher than i would like it.


For the money this is a great race! $40 for an Olympic is very good value. The Sprint is the same price. Hope to be back next year and weigh less.
