LOCO Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

My sighting was a little off and I may have been able to go a little faster had I not veered to the right. The current was stronger further out in the river.

I actually sat down to put my socks on. The last 100m of the swim and running (hard) to transition had me at redline.

Not sit down

At the first turn around I was very excited to see only two bikers ahead of me and the ones behind me were not gaining.

Nutrition: Aero-Bottle with GU Brew (140 calories)

Solid bike course, no changes.

Solid transition, however, I probably got out of my shoes a little too early.

I haven't been doiong the 'riding on top of shoes thing' for too long so this race and the last one I probably got out of my shoes a little sooner than needed.

The run had 1 drink station that was passed twice on the run.

Not much I could do differently on this one, despite no HR monitor, I think I was in my LT and redline area for the whole run.

2 mile cooldown run on the road and in the shade. The shaded run where I cooled down was significantly cooler/breezier than the run course through the woods...but less scenic.

Pretty cool Mason Jar glass as an award.


The race director promised everyone at the race that they will do better with the course markings next year to ensure no one gets lost.

I would do this one again.
