Luna Bar Women's Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

The swim didn't feel bad, it was just SLOW--I don't know of the reason for the slow-ness, I just couldn't keep up. My breathing was good though.

Keep practicing. This was my last tri for 2011, so I will now concentrate on increasing my swim distance--without any stoppages...This has been one of my issues, stopping mid lap/course.

I ran from the swim to transition--that's a first. It went smoothly--the only part of me that was slow was my brain...

FOCUS!

Not too bad. I was passed often going up hills, but I was screaming by others on the downhills and flats. Unfortunately on the last half mile, my front tire started going flat, which cut my speed further. I was still able to finish on the bike(it was a slow leak).



This off-season--Continue riding--a LOT. Also, hill work, lots of hill work, they are definitely my weak point while riding. I need to get a fitting done as on my rides I am having issues with my hands going numb.

This transition went smoothly...I do need to work on my bike dismount (while moving).

Practice my bike dismount.

Not bad, I think I could have pushed myself a bit harder, but I did run more than I walked.

Run more. Again, during the off-season, focus on running for longer distance without stopping.

Walking around the expo.


My brain--I need to push myself harder.


It was a well-put-together race. They were organized and everything was done on time. The results have been posted within 24 hours too--definite plus. The proceeds went to a good cause--the Firefighter's Burn Institute. I plan on competing in this race next year as well.
