Hawk Island Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

suckage....for me the swim was ok, seeing as i have less than 2 hours in the pool the entire year. i didn't have to stop and breast stroke at all, but i hate swimming with a full sleeve wetsuit.

first in my age group in something today....yeah

My feet were completely numb coming out of the water, got on the bike and figured they would warm up...wrong. It was terrible.

I'm a little disappointed with avg speed on the bike. i plan on spending the next month working on it.

i got yelled at for coming in too hot. i was off the bike and in control at the line so I dont know why he was hollering....
Got off the bike and my feet were still numb, which was nice cause the transition area was covered with rocks.

My feet were still numb. It felt very weird running like that. Overall it was not too bad, not too great, i got passed by alot of people. sigh, need to put some more time in on the run.

Finished and took my shoes off immediately. On Trixie's recommendation I went and found some socks to put on. It took about 15 min for the feeling to come back to my feet. I'm wondering if I had worn socks on the bike if they wouldn't have warmed up faster.


my only complaint about this race was people not following the rules on the bike...drafting was a problem, but not the biggest one. There were so many people riding down the middle or the left (yellow) side of the lane. i saw people pass bikes splitting between a rider on the left and right. if they are going to keep the course that tight next year, they need to really explain and enforce the rules. thankfully there wasn't a ton of traffic.
