GJCC Memorial Weekend Triathlon - TriathlonMini Sprint

Tried to do a moving mount at the mount line, but it was an uphill. Had to abandon that and run up to the crest and try again.
Getting shoes on was unusually difficult. Could have had #1 bike split if I'd done this perfectly.

The right gear selection would have allowed a successful mount at the line and gained some time.
Need to practice shoes on the bike a LOT more.

Course had 3 tricky turns. Did them well. No water was needed in such a short race.

Must get great at slipping shoes on.

My transition felt darn fast, yet lots of people beat me. Maybe sprinting harder out of the transition area???

Run went better than I'd hoped in regard to my various aches and pains. No issues from my achilles in my racing flats. Hip flexor and groin pulls were not noticed. Wish I had 1 mile split.

just gentle walking around and visiting with peeps. No stretching, no extra running, no sitting still.


Just that bike mount and shoes.


Race used the Tri-Tats system. Didn't like it. Tats are OK, but they provide STICKERS for a million different things and that's a big pain on the morning of the race. Stickers were even to be stuck to race clothing and raced in! Most of them came off in the water. Big failure.
