Pre-race routine:

Setup area, stretched (could have stretched more). Swam 200M (perhaps too much), tried to get used to the flip turns under the lane markers.
Swim
  • 05m 1s
  • 250 yards
  • 02m 01s / 100 yards
Comments:

flip turns under the lanes was definately something new and something to practice if I do more of these indoor tris - likely...wasted too much energy on the warm-up. Will focus on more endurance Tuesday when back in the pool.
Transition 1
  • 00m
Bike
  • 33m 27s

Comments:

slow transition out of the pool and dropped water bottle on course were two mistakes - otherwise flawless performance for my current state.
Transition 2
  • 00m
Run
  • 33m 36s
  • 3.2 miles
  • 10m 30s  min/mile
Comments:

This was my most difficult leg of the tri...next time buy a water/race belt and drink while running. Developed a stitch likely due to low electrolytes

Event comments:

This was my first triathlon and there was plenty for me to learn and now work on before m next in two weeks.
