![]() Swim
Comments: This was exactly where i planned for it to be. I was hoping to be under 5:15. I actually could have gone a little faster, but the lanes got backed up in a couple places. What would you do differently?: Nothing ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Could have been faster but i couldn't get long sleeves on my wet arms. Wouldn't have been a problem on a warmer day but I'm glad i had the warmth on such a cold day. What would you do differently?: Just move quicker. I didn't want to forget anything, so I was probably slower than necessary. ![]() Bike
Comments: About 1 mile in I dropped my chain. I wasted about 1:30 or so to get it back on. Once I got back up to speed all went well. I wasn't expecting "Nice Hill" which took me by suprise. What would you do differently?: Train harder on the Bike. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Went well. Took some time to drink some gatorade. What would you do differently?: I would probably try to drink my gatorade towards the end of the bike, so I wouldn't have to do it during T2. ![]() Run
Comments: I felt like was going slow, but it turns out my time was a little better than I expected. What would you do differently?: I would probably push a little harder on the last mile, and sprint to the finish. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Drank some fluids, and ate some pizza. The weather was cold so cooling down was no problem. What limited your ability to perform faster: This was my first Triathlon, and I was worried about the swim portion so I put in a lot of swims during my 2 month training period. Next time I'll concentrate more on the Bike, and less on the swim. Event comments: I have nothing to compare it to since it was my first, but i had a great time. The only thing that could have made it better would have been better weather. Last updated: 2011-05-03 12:00 AM
