LA Tri Series #3 - Championship Distance - TriathlonOlympic

I just didn't relax because it seemed as if I was always off course. I think I am seeing but not processing what I am seeing correctly. I just need to try and relax more.

Try and relax more and take my time sighting.

I am treating this like an IM so I am taking my time to make sure I get everything right. I think it went great compared to last time. Need to remember where bike is though.

Remember where bike is. Everything else went good.

I just tried to get my heart rate down for the start and get comfortable. By the end of the first lap I started to push the uphills and keep my hr at the top of the zone. Also pushed most of the third lap except the last hill. Decided to relax so my legs would be ready for the run.

Things went great. I only wish I was more daring on the down hills. Still not real comfortable and I have never been.

I took a little longer because i felt I was forgeting something.

Nothing. I would rather take a few extra seconds and get it right.

Run went good. Didn't get passed and passed a bunch of people. Kept hr in check for first half and then went after it. My right calf was bothering me not to long after the bike but I was able to run through it until my foot started tingling. Then I realized my transponder was cutting of my circulation in that leg. I had to stop and loosen it and it got better. This was about a mile and half from the finish.

Make sure transponder is loose and push sooner on the run for this distance. My sprint was way too fast for the last 400 and I wasn't really winded afterwards. I missed 7th fastest time and 1st in my class by 1 sec.

None this time.


Swim sighting and lack of experience. Also my mind set is on the longer distances so thats how i am thinking during the race. I think I can go much faster than this.


I will go back next year.
