Las Palomas Triathlon at Rocky Point - Olympic Distance - TriathlonOlympic

Felt good the whole time. Really calm out there so it was a pretty easy swim, felt a little short though.

Not too much.

Kind of a long run from the beach to transition included in swim time. Had a little trouble getting my wetsuit off but everything else was pretty smooth.

Get the wetsuit off quicker.

Had some stomach issues for half the bike and most of the run but rode well and my legs a felt strong. I kept a good cadence and pretty good pace. I think I only let four people pass me while riding.

I think if I hadn't eaten so much in the morning I wouldn't have had stomach issues, but overall I'm pretty happy.

No real problems, a little slow but no big deal.

Go a little quicker.

I felt OK on the run. My stomach was bothering me but I had no problem running, I just couldn't go fast for some reason. The run was supposed to be a 10k but ended up as 4.3 miles, when I saw I was headed to the beach for the finish I was worried I had missed a turn but some girl said she thought it was short also so I just head for the beach and kicked through the sand to the finish.

Run faster.

Stood under the beach side shower to cool down, it felt great!


I felt pretty solid the whole race, my only mistake was eating too much in the morning and I think that was just a comfort issue and didn't really slow me down much.


Great time in Mexico with a group of my friends. Once again we had 2 people doing their first race, one of them my friends 61 year old mom. We had 2 sweet condos and cooked up great dinners for the group and just hung out. On Sunday we had a fun two man scramble golf tournament and then headed back to Phoenix. My only negative thing about the race is the shortening of the run, I had a good race going and I think could have had a Olympic distance PR if the distance was correct.
