Swim
Comments: PB for swim, just under 2:00/100M. Waves on rtn helped but hindered on way out. What would you do differently?: Keep conditioning, work on bi-lateral breathing and tracking Transition 1
Comments: No wetsuit shoes were on in transition before mounting What would you do differently?: Will need to begin trg w wetsuit. Will purchase in fall. Need water to rinse feet in transition (used drinking water) Bike
Comments: Challenging hills. Chased several bikers, passed as many as passed me. Felt good about pace considering hills What would you do differently?: Conditioning is coming along. Second water bottle would have helped. Continue hill work. Probably overdid bike at expense of run Transition 2
Comments: Dismount before tranistion, left shoes on. Could take feet out of shoes and run with socks What would you do differently?: Investigate running w socks. Felt too spent on ride and paid on run, More conditioning tgt pace 32km/hr Run
Comments: Difficult run after bike. Fighting form. Walked to drink. ELO made me feel sick. Should train w ELO if intent is to use on race. Felt need to take on ELO and water. Second bottle on bike for ELO/water might help. Struggled w pace, well off PB or race pace (4:47 vs. 4:31 @ K-Town) What would you do differently?: Train w ELO, more hydration on bike. Learn to drink while running or drink quicker (lost time on walking) Post race
Warm down: Light stretching, fruit, water What limited your ability to perform faster: Run was quite slow. Very laboured, felt out of conditioning and starting to cramp and flush. ELO caused cramping Event comments: Good race, well organized. Flat run compensated for challenging ride. 2 loops on run was good to see other competitors and family Last updated: 2010-08-09 12:00 AM
