Red Bank Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

Hung with the pack for most of the race. Crowded around buoys and along last length of rectangularly shaped course. i was surprised to hang with everyone, expected to be more off the back of the pack.

Sight better. Look more often and keep fighting through around the buoys as opposed to stopping and trying to get out of the way of the masses.

A little slow, wet suit was a bit of a struggle. Bike had been knocked over and I did not see it and ran by. Did not do flying mount, lacked confidence (will practice more).

If I was not wearing shoes, I could have run w/bike and gotten out quicker.

I was too concerned with going to hard early and potentially blowing up the run.

Go harder, I left something here.

Almost crashed at dismount line. Lots of brake fade. Need to get pads checked/replaced.

Left shoes on bike, and dismount barefoot.

OK run. First run off the bike this year. Watched pace carefully for first mile or so, then just went by feel. Had duct tape on existing blister on left heel, should have done the same for right foot.

Duct tape both heels and try for a last mile push.

Sit down.


Inexperience at this distance and not enough bike training coming into the race.


Good event and definitely one I will look to do next year and perform to a higher potential
