Persona Desert Half Iron - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

push harder the last lap

i think it went smoothly for the first t1 that i have done.no mistakes. put shoes and socks on off of bike.ran bike to mounting area and away i went

try to do it a little quicker

good bike leg. hilly course but felt strong

nothing

good t2 no mistakes

try to speed it up a bit

leg cramps 5 minutes into run.both quads had to stop and strech then walk for a minute. Ok after that.ran the rest of the way with no cramping. felt slow and lathargic for most of the run.

more brick work in training. i didn't do much and i think that it had a big impact with my legs cramping

ate watermelon,drank water g aid. went for swim in the lake
post race lunch


first race ever, didn't have experince with pacing.
12 week program for 1/2 iron, if i started earlier with a longer program i would have been better conditioned


my first race, so tuff to compare to. i heard that this race is one of the hardest to do but i felt good.
