Philadelphia Women's Triathlon - Duathlon

Went out at a good pace. Kept to my routine. HR around 170.

Nothing.

Delay getting into my shoes. Hard to put them on while legs were tired from run. Kept wanting to fall over.

Stoop down or sit while putting shoes on.

Mostly downhill and super fast. Enjoyed the bike ride more than I thought I would. Surprised at split. HR around 180 which was too high but somehow I was able to maintain pace and had enough for run.

Hope to repeat same type of ride at the New Jersey Sprint.

Better transition than the first. Someone put their bike on my corner and simply put my bike on someone else's spot.

Spent a little too much time hydrating for run. Should have done it on bike.

Surprised at split. Just kept a steady pace and tried to get to finish line as fast as possible.

Running clearly shown as my weak leg. Need to improve speed and endurance on the run.

Yeah right.


Felt good and felt I performed at my capability. This was first race and have made note of areas for improvement. Specifically, more bike and run training.


Upset about the cancellation of the swim but realize they have to be concerned about safety, especially with all the drowings that have happened in the year. The pre-race day pick-up was very unorganized as no one knew where the hell to go. Didn't even bother with the post race buffett as the line was beyond ridiculous. Just grabbed a coke and a luna bar and waited to go to McDonalds afterwards.
