Pleased with transition... It was my first ever, so hard to compare it to anything.

Comments:

Very good ride for me. NOthing to compare it to, but 19 on a warm, hilly and windy course was good for me.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe hold back a little for the run.
Transition 2
  • 30m 23s
Comments:

No basis for comparison - I thought the transition was ok. forgot to put my running bib on.
What would you do differently?:

not sure

Comments:

Absolutely tanked on the run. Heart rate was 175 and I could not get it down without significantly slowing or walking. Overheated.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe better training would help, particularly focused on the run. Also, may have over-exerted on the bike...
Post race
Warm down:

drank some fluid, eventually sat down...

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I think it was probably conditioning. Swimming technique is improving; cycling was good and can still improve. I either need to be in better condition or learn to pace myself a bit better.

Event comments:

This was a good race for my first triathlon. I'm very glad the run course was as easy as it was as I had quite a bit of difficulty with it.
