Big Rock Olympic Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

I did the same race in October, the swimming seemed much longer this time. Swim was 8 minutes longer after much more training.

More time swimming in wet suit. More warmup too.

Improved my transition time by about 1:30. Ran the whole way up the beach, last time only ran once I got to the grass.

Stayed at my desired HR Zone. Flat wasn't fun, but got it changed quickly.

Push a little harder up the hill.

Bike was racked at the far end of the transition area, long ways to run wearing bike shoes.

Good run for me. Still too fast off the bike. Pace was consistent after the first half mile.

I was discouraged after the swim. I felt good going into it, spent many hours in the pool trying to help with confidence. Flat on the bike.


I like this race, it's close to home. My wife did the sprint, so it was fun do the race together. Didn't meet my goal of 3 hrs. Only met my goal on the run and transitions.
