Lake Geneva Triathlon - Sprint - TriathlonSprint

Ok, this was interesting. I tried to calm myself...wasn't nervous about the water. Once it started. Couldn't get a rythum or a comfort level with my breathing. Back stroked a bit, got worried I wouldn't finish a bit. I did...got sea-sick after. Next time take your bonine.

Not much. Just need more training and of course take my bonine. Lost about 3 minutes in transition due to dizziness.

My first, so I don't want to be too critical, but from what I heard, the transition area was not well planned. It was alright for me....I'm not to the point that I'm terribly worried about this yet.

Get some multi-purpose gear...Otherwise, felt good...and the bonine.

Best part of the race for me. Felt great and did great. Passed tons of people and was only passed by a few. This totally saved my swim and transition. Felt great the whole time.

Nothing. Went better than I expected.

Ok with this transition. went fine. Kind of a long run to my bike, but not so much to complain.

Won't change shirts next time. Didn't take long, but unnecessary. Also, find a new energy gel. Those cubes are hard to eat when you're breathing heavy.

Run would have been great as well, if not for the cramp in my right rib cage..out of nowhere. Nothing else felt bad, except the cramp. Goal was to not stop, which I didn't. First half was rough, but much easier on way back.

Unsure at this point. I'm sure the cramp came for a reason...otherwise, was happy with the run.

Not much. Walked round...ate a banana and shared some laughs. Pretty good warm down for my first one.


Unsure. I will find out at some point..right now just proud of the achievement.


Like I said, I think an experienced tri person will have more to say. I rated it good due to the weather and my great experience. Didnt' hang around long, but the town is a great place to stay and have fun afterwards.
