Musselman Half-Iron Triathlon - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

Good swim, Could have pushed it more but was weary of the bike/run to come. Felt comfortable in the water, sun was an issue on the way back in.

Need more warm-up. It was really shallow to begin but once I got out there I was good.

Ok transition, I could go faster but I was trying to stay in control.

practice faster transitions

I had a lot of trouble on the bike. Betwee mile 20 - 48 my groin mussle was killing me. There was times that I was thinking about stopping. Kept trying to stretch it out. Was way out of my rythme during a large part of this bike. I did ot feel good on the bike. Very upset about my biking..

Do not know. I might have to do some soul serching on the bike.

Once again a little slow on transitions but nothing to get too upset about.

pick it up a little

Talked myself back into the race. First 3 miles I felt great and was planning out the rest of the race. Positive thinking the whole time no matter what. I really worked on positivity throughout the whole run. THe hills were tough but I pushed through the best I could. Really felt the last 3 miles but realized that it is part of the race. Back to Form was what I kept saying the last 3 miles.

Do not know. I will have to think about it.

ice bath after the race was the best thing ever. Then a massage that let me know that I was not hydrated enough.


hydration was a huge factor and the mussle issue on the bike.


This is one of the if not the best race I had the pleasure to attend. It was run perfectly, there was a lot to do, the course was challenging but not impossible, overall it had everything. My family and I had a blast from Thursday-Monday. I could have stayed at the park all day on Sat and sunday if my kids did not have to take naps. Did I mention how great this race was...
