Evergreen Lake International Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

A pretty good swim, I positioned myself further up in the pack to try and get away from people faster. It didn't work as well as what i had hoped. Part of the problem is my watch strap came lose and i couldnt get it to velcro up.

I am really happy with my swim but I think it is time to start pushing speed work to see if i can't lower my times.

I knew this was going to be slow. I had a gel, put on my biking gloves because of the longer distance. I just wanted that little bit of extra time to re-orient before heading out on the bike.

Not much, this will only get faster from here.

I started off slow on the bike because I have a tendancy to take off really fast and fade during the later parts of long rides. I just made sure to stay in a comfortable gear and hydrate during the first 4-5 miles. After that I cranked up my pace but the rollers started to take their toll on me after a while.

Not much, just ride longer distances more often. Overall I am really happy with where my biking is.

A good transition. First time going from bike shoes to running shoes. Took a couple extra seconds to check my socks to make sure they where not wet before switching to my running shoes.

Just practice taking off my bike shoes and switching to my running shoes.

Not much to say here other than my running sucks. I had wanted to be closer to 12 minute miles but I just couldn't run for very long before I had to start to walk.

Focus on my run for the next couple of months and build a solid running base.

Started sipping water and then moved to ultragen to try and get some calories in me. Had to lay down in the back of my car for a few minutes as I was completely drained. I started to tunnel vision a couple of times, but just kept sipping away and re-hydrating myself.


A great race by tri-sharks. You can tell they know what they are doing. I am thankfull the sun stayed behind the clouds all morning and contributed to a great day to be outside racing
