Mini HaHa Triathlon - TriathlonMini Sprint

Only 3 of us in lane and I was first. I had a great swim. The guy behind me kept me going fast. I messed up on lap counter and some breaths. I was just swimming hard and not concentrating on other stuff. I'd like to get to a point where I can swim hard in a race, and be able to be more mindful of things.

Nothing. Training is paying off.

Slow time. I think this cost me 2 places. But I decided I would put my HRM on, and Tri shirt, and socks. This was the only disapointing part of my race.

I wanted HR data. Maybe next time I'll see how swimming with the Tri Shirt is so I can save that step.

I just rode as hard as I could. Had to slow down twice at lights as I wasnt sure what police was going to do.
Good ride. I need some more bike fitness. This was really good for first hard ride.

this was quick and easy. Undid shoe straps, but only got one foot out before dismount. Had 2 people pass me. Had to have a gel 75% through first lap. Maybe a bit too much water toward end as i felt a bit full running.

Beat last year! Even after surgery and not running faster than 8:30 in training.
I just ran. Turned out to be pretty fast. Toward end I saw bikers who passed me. One was not too hard to pass, he was actually my pusher in swim lane. The other guy I didn't pass. He had about 2 minutes on me at start, and finished 8 seconds ahead.

Talked to guy I didn't catch. He shook my hand and thanked me for a great competition.


Just training.


PR, and under an hour. Finally met my goal. Now it's time to start moving up AG. I was bummed though. Bettered my time by about 3:30 minutes, yet fell 4 AG places, and 3 overall places.
It was a great race considering my surgery and thinking I wasn't at same fitness level as last year. Too bad it rained last year.
