MedExpress Mountaineer Triathlon - Half Ironman - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

I think the swim was my best event, I thought I did well, but not too good compared to the rest of the group.

I started in the rear of the pack and got stuck for a bit, but I don't know if it would have changed anything

I actually clipped in really fast, and passed a few people right out of the gate. The run from the swim to the bike was a long one, probably 1/4 of a mile. Overall, thought it went ok. I stopped and ate a little before the bike

I still need to move faster, it was a conscious decision though today.

I averaged 19.6 mph on the first loop and felt really good about that. but on the second loop I just dropped a little, don't know why, might have been fatigue setting in. My lower back was killing me from the get go, might have stretched it out a little in the swim.

Other than better and more training, nothing I guess. I think that better conditioning would have solved my problem

I again took my time knowingly. I was pretty tired. But I think the transition went pretty good. The race belt was great, I really liked it.

Run was horrible. This is the first race where I actually had to stop and walk, but I also had to do it multiple times. My heart rate was fine, it stuck in the upper 140's but my muscles just had nothing left. It was a struggle to witness myself run such a slow time. But I had to finish

I just need more endurance training.

Sat in the shade and drank a water. Stretched after that.


Lack of endurance
