MightyMite Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

The water was almost 90 degrees and it was like swimming in a bathtub. I really felt like I had a good swim overall, I could have sighted better on the first buoy, but the sun was really bad. I felt like I was swimming faster, although my time does not reflect it. I have swam this course faster in the past.

more time swimming. I know I cut it back some from the pool and really tried to swim in OW more. Need to get back to the pool.

T1 was fine. At this race, you have to put everything in a bag before you leave, so it takes an extra second or two.

be faster

This was the first time for me to race my new bike and I wanted to hammer it. I popped my chain off at mile 3 after climbing a hill and was trying to change back to my big ring, but I think it was more my fault than the bikes. I didn't remember that course being as hilly as it was, but I felt strong.

Only had about 100 miles before this race on my bike since mine was stolen. More riding

T2 went smooth. Took some water and grabbed a gel. Actually took a little more time to try and make sure legs were ready to run!

I forgot to turn on my Garmin earlier, so it wasn;t ready.

Horrible. I knew I was not going to hit my goal time and that really bummed me out because I thought I was running a good race. I finally got my Garmin up and running by mile 1 and just grinded it out the rest of the way. Very bummed. In the past I have average an 8:25 pace

not sure, my running still remains a mystery

wet towels, water, sprite and shower tent


I have been reviewing this race for two days now and I really thought I would be faster. Time to put this behind me and move on to the next one.


Love this race and the whole event is awesome.
