Evergreen Lake International Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

Felt like my swim went pretty well. There were a couple of times that I got off on my navigation because my goggles were fogged up and I couldn't see all that well. Overall pretty happy with my swim.

Probably the only thing I would have done differently would have been to pace myself better the first 500 yards. Went out to fast early on and got winded early.

Probably spent a little more time here than I needed but I was just glad to be out of the water and glad to have survived the swim.

Nothing.

Holy cow! What a ride I had today. 19 mph average which for me is smokin. Really felt very good during the entire ride today. Definetly my stongest bike performance ever. Not sure how I pulled this off today but hopefully I can continue to have strong rides like this.

Nothing

Again probably spent more time here than I needed to also but my feet hurt a little and I wanted to take a minute to stretch them before I left on the run.

Nothing.

Felt hot the entire run and couldnt keep myself cool. Cool sponges and water helped but really didn't cool down until around mile 4 when it started pouring down raining. By that time I was running out of gas and was pretty much out of gas by mile 4.

Need to work on more brick workouts. My legs were toast after about 3 miles of the run. Also need to work better on nutrition during the run so I don't crash.

Got my stuff and headed to the car right away as it was pouring down raining and I had to get back home for my sons birthday party.


Inexperience in the olympic distance. Think my great bike ride today made up for a less than stellar run.


Very organized and well marked courses with plenty of volunteers along the way to cheer you on. Overall was very happy with my performance for my first olympic distance event.
