Lake Geneva Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

Swim was 1/4 mile max - organisers sent everyone to one buoy too close

I couldn't get into a rhythm as I kept checking for when to turn etc - just wasn't in it mentally.

I can really do a lot better in the swim.

Better than Chicago - learned to relax and breathe after swim, and got going better. Time wa still not great but I was more organised and I was much calmer.

Just gotta speed it up - all practice.

Didn't find rhythm & gear changes to begin with - deceptive inclines (or bad judgement) and would be fast then very slow. Got into better rhythm and could keep legs going - all about focus and isolating legs.

Out of seat a little on some inclines - needed to use power rather than spin up them

Push it harder - was worried about legs cramping like in chicago. Learn hills

Was ok - someone tried to pass me as I dismounted and got my foot in his chest - serves him right for trying to ride fully into transition

Just practise to get better

My run times are bad but I RAN the hill and many people who may have beaten me for time didn't - I win the moral victory over them and the course. Part of doing this is determination to do whatever it takes and however I feel to keep going, ao walking is not an option.

Still, I'm one of the slowest runners - I don't have it to go much faster - strange.

Gotta practice this - this is truly my worst discipline, and whilst I need to build my base on the other two also, I need to really improve the run.

Stretched a little, drank water, waited for Bobby D at finish


running ability and lack of time spent on bike since I bought it.

Felt I did better in this one - even if numbers don't really say so. Still very critical of myself and can do much better, but looking forward to training this winter & getting into it next year.


Swim was a real cock up for them

Transition area was filled with people for HIM athletes to negociate
