Naperville Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

couldn't get in a rythm given all the turning, this slowed me down a lot. And my poor form didn't help either.

I need to take a few lessons to get faster, and train more. I don't think there is anything I could have done differently raceday, I'm just not that strong of a swimmer yet.

I probably could have moved faster but all in all felt it went pretty smooth.

I would probably run faster from the swim, and once I had my bike.

I probably could have pushed harded but since it is my first triathlon I wanted to make sure I had enough gas in the tank to finish my run. All in all I was content with my bike performance.

I would push harder to maintain a faster speed, I let myself slowdown to much when I was following someone who started to slow down, I should have just maintained my speed and passed them.

This was easy as I don't have clipless pedals. Everything went smoothly.

Nothing.

The first 10 minutes was the hardest part of the race for me, so I went pretty slow to settle in. After that I sped up, but didn't want to push too hard and run out of steam. I think I could have gone a little faster, but not much.

Not much. I would probably have paid a little more attention to my time and pace, but I was just focused on finishing.

banannas, cookies, and water.


My conservative mindset since it was my first race. I wasn't in the mindset of pushing myself hard, I was in the mindset of just feeling it out.


I thought the race was great, everything went smoothly and the volunteers were awesome. The post race party was great, and I was able to get my bike out of the transition area very quickly, and I thought results were posted in a reasonable amount of time. Had a blast!
