Atlantic City International Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

I was deliberately conservative as I had never raced this distance before. I found it frustrating when I caught up to other waves and had to stop and then navigate around them - but that is the nature of triathlons I guess!

be more aggressive

I had a very slow transition which probably cost me some valuabe time - wetsuit got stuck - also though I deliberately tried to be conservative and keep my heart down a bit. the tranisiton area was huge and it was a long way between getting out of the swim and to the bicycle mount station

go faster - lube the ankle area of wetsuit, plan this through better

still quite slow!!

I was fairly happy with this run - again I was being a little conservative and wanting to not blow up - this was my first tri of this distance

no previous experience at this distance
poor transition and less than average bike perfomrance


this was one of the best triathlons i have been to - and i loved the finishers medal!! It felt so amazing to cross the finishers line. the food was great post race (although as a chef - i would have done it differently - just the food that is)
the ride course, although fun to do was stressful and there were a lot of traffic jams. the swim and run courses were excellent and safe. i WILL do this again!!!
