Na Wahine Sprint Triathalon Women only - TriathlonSprint

Swim was cancelled due to box jellyfish warnings. 1 mile run instead. I purposely did not go out too fast not knowing how I would feel transitioning to the bike.

switching from running shoes to bike shoes was a bit tricky with the pine needles on the ground, I guess I would need a bigger towel to step on so I can wipe my feet before switching shoes.

see above

The hills I train on here are a bit more steap so I may had a advantage getting up them. Plus I much rather climb a hill than hit a strong headwind!!!! Fast course. Overall I loved racing on my roadbike and can't wait to do it again.

I need to be smoother in changing gears. A few times I did not do that right and I think someone may have passed me because of that.

Very happy with this transition!

Maybe a quick stretch of the quads but I didn't notice them when I was running.

I don't know how I ran that fast. I felt slower and my husband said I look faster in the beginning that when I finished. I did have to be careful on the finish since we were running on the grass, I did not want to twist an ankle.

I need to start to run longer when I train hopefully I will feel better when I race.

Walked around and strecthed.


The first run I guess I could of ran faster but not knowing how I would feel on the bike, I think choosing to take it easy helped my overall bike time. I felt real good on the bike and maybe could have gone a bit harder but probably did just right becase the run after the bike felt very hard.


I think we could have done the swim, there wasn't even any signs posted and there were lots of swimmers in the water. They should have decided on the night before and had us warned one way or the other! I am a stronger swimmer than I am a runner!!!!!
It was fun to meet up with fellow BT'er "Tizzy" she was a great help and very encouraging the last few weeks leading up to the race!
