Tri-ing for Children's Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

water was warm, had the full suit. started out on the far rt front corner, plan was to start and move into the draft to the left. I was stuck next to someone who was not moving over. couldn't get around her so I swam over her(sorry) one I was in the draft I felt great. good first turn but then got caught in front of a breast stroker, got around her and tried to find more bubbles. as I made the last turn I got caught up with oly swimmers and got pushed to the outside, this hurt my time. but still better then last year(10:11)

still be more aggressive, also maybe start front middle?

I have been working on my transitions and it is getting better but still a long way to go! Last year was 2:46.

more practice, suit juice was great!

very happy with my bike, started out very strong then passed a girl with a flat and slowed down to make sure she was ok, almost stopped to give her a tube and co2 but I was feeling so good on the bike and had a time I wanted to beat...didn't stop, felt guilty for the next few miles and wasn't pushing like earlier. pace fell then shook it off knowing she should have been prepared?(still feeling guilty) did tell the volunteers at the next turn that she was walking. stayed in aero most of the ride, only coming out when the wind was blowing me over and around the sharper turns.(48:42 last year)

continue working on cornering and efficient peddling.

again been working on this and still better then last year but not as fast as I want. went without socks. 1:52 last year

want to work on my mount and dismount.

this felt rough! The legs did not want to move. Thought I was going very slow and had to talk myself into not walking. The hay was the worst! Felt like running through quicksand.

not sure, my run has been distance focused and with the HIM last week I am happy with my time just not the "hurt" maybe keep the speed stuff going? I have never been real speedy but it is getting better and beat my last year time of 26:54!

walked around a bit, got food and congratulated my friend and cousin who have been coming to my triclub at the Y for becoming triathletes! also talked and hung with the donks. What a great group of friends I have made through this amazing journey!


not sure it was limited, I beat my time from last year in every part of this race which surprised me coming off the HIM. last year 1:30:25. Very happy with this race..just wish I wasn't in the speedy group with Tammy, Heidi and Jeanne. :)


This is one of my favorite races. Love everything about it.
