Ironman Kansas 70.3 - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

pretty good, i think a 26 is in store for next year though

went fine, had to put my garmin on and get situated and then it was a long run out of T1 with the bike, hopped on and got the shoes on pretty easy on the go

felt strong for all of the bike, didnt blow up like last year and went faster, did a great job of peeing on myself so no stops, and there was a mandatory dismount, but hey everbody had to do it

got mixed up on where i was going, but got in and got out

started out good then got ugly, handled 3 miles or so at 7:30 pace, then backed it off til mile 7ish and then i started cramping up and doing alot of walking and shuffling. Good thing the course was short because i was barely moving at the end

guess i need to keep more sodium and electrolytes in me, had horrible sweat rings on my shirt and skin...and i didnt do anything about it

got my medal from Ms. Wellington, then crapped out on the ground by the finish

layed there for a bit then got some grub, ate 4 sandwichs a bag of chips and some bananas!

then got my splits and my bike and wetsuit and trekked it back to the campsite


while i trained more this year...alot more...it wasnt enough for how fast i really wanted to go.


absolutely loved it. From the camping aspect to enjoying all the spectators and my family on the run course. Bike was challenging and fun and the swim was perfect.
