Buck Hurley Triathlon - TriathlonMini Sprint

Managed to pass 3 people, but almost had a couple collisions when people were trying to pass and not looking down the lane.

Would have been nice if I had known there'd be no diving. Getting started was a little awkward.

Shirt got stuck on my neck and it slowed me down. No problem getting shorts on this time.

Did have to cross 4 sets of RR tracks and bounced my bottle out of the cage early on lap 1. Felt like I could really attack the hills. Passed lots of people and even lapped a few.

I think I definitely need to ride the course the day before so I know where I'm going a bit better. Or drive it even.

I fell getting off the bike because my shoe slid on the pavement. Probably lost about 10s.

Not fall off the bike!

Felt great, even though a bit slower than usual. Was able to sprint the last 500 m or so.

Not much. I think I just need to do more speed work in my running.

Was a little drained because I was on my period. Just need to keep working to get faster.


The course wasn't horribly difficult; I definitely could have done a more difficult one, but it was a great experience. I felt so much more relaxed this time. We started the swim a couple minutes late. They had lots of great volunteers and everyone was super nice.

Had to go to work, so I couldn't stay to see official results, but my guess is that I placed pretty well. I chicked a bunch of guys and passed lots of people who were in front of me.
