SHE TriWomen Triathlon - Triathlon

Swim time was in top 23%

Nothing, was pleased with swim, and I bolted out of the pool to my bike which was quite a long way away.

Had to stop and take a breath before got on bike as my HR was way up and needed a bit of time to take stock and concentrate so I didn't fall flat on my face in front of the hundreds of spectators with cameras :-)

Nothing

Was wrapped with bike, ranked in the top 15%, went hard out the whole way. Forgot cycle computer so had no idea of speed but about 27km/ph sounds about right.

Put cycle computer on and drink more.

Stopped bike, unclipped shoes, ran a few steps with shoes, stopped, took shoes off, put them on aerobars and ran to transition - quite a long way to transition.

Really need to practise getting out of shoes and biking wih feet on top of shoes so can jump off and run, instead of mucking round with taking shoes off.

Run placing was top 45%, its OK, the run is my worst part, and it was hot. Run was OK, as usual suffered through it LOL. HR way up, MHR reached was 195 (98%!!) during the sprint to the end, I had the shakes afterwards, hehe. Last years run wasn't measured correctly, it was short, so this year was measured properly and was exactly 3km, so was pleased with run time

Get better at running LOL

None, had some food and sat in the shade


Long distance to transition areas, but that affects everyone, it was hot, other than that I was pleased with the race.


I really put a lot of effort into this race and was really pleased with the results I had, especially in the bike! I was hoping to get under the 1 hour time. My results for the same race last yer was 1:00:37, this year 56:24.
