Milton Triathlon - Try-a-Tri Distance - TriathlonMini Sprint

Wish I hadnt worn a wetsuit. I found it really slowed me down due to the added weight of the water in the suit. Really tired me out and had a hard time navigating and kept drifting wide. Swollowed half the lake. Really affected me later in the race.

Not wear a wetsuit

Transition was good. Didnt spend too much time changing.

Bring a towel.

Bike was good to start though I really tired out later on. It wasnt until the last km or two that I regained a bit of energy. For most of the bike I felt sick due to taking in a large amount of water from the swim. Felt light headed.

Get more training in.

Fairly good.

Coming off of the bike was quite hard. I was barely running. Had to stop and stretch for about 15s to get my legs working again.

Increase my pace. As the run went on, I continued to get more energy but didnt use it for fear of running out.
Brick workouts. Its all about the prep.

Walk around. Drink water.


Little to no training time in the 2 months prior to the race.


Great race and I had a blast. Finally met Jordan from BT. Im looking forward to the next one and being more prepared physically and mentally. I only planned this race to be a test to gain a feel for what the sport is like. I must say it leaves you wanting more!
