Xterra Wetsuits Spring Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

Start was a bit difficult. Narrow start until the group cleared the dock then I could get spread out and start passing.

Start closer to the front and get to the outside quicker. Try and avoid other swimmers until I get more comfortable in open water. Secondly I would go a bit easier at first to make sure I had enough at the end. Felt tired for the home stretch.

First time in T1. Seemed to go smoothly.

Maybe wear the tri top under the suit, wet upper body made pulling the top down take more time. Need more practice getting into the pedals, took a while to click in.

Really tried to stay out of everyone's way. Made sure to check behind me when passing slower riders. I just wanted a decent ride, not too hard. I wanted to make sure I had enough left for the run. Stayed in the aero position for most of the ride. Felt good.

Had pleanty left for the run so I probably could have gone harder.

Went smoothly.

Nothing that I can think of.

Best run pace so far. Able to keep a fast pace (for me) the entire run. Spilt includes a transition.

Nothing, one of my best runs ever and that was after a swim and ride!

Uncertainty, being that this was my first tri.


Finished 49/83 in my age group and 492/824 overall. My original goal was to just finish but as I got closer to the race and was confident that I would finish I was hoping I would finish in the top 50%-60% and I definately did that. Very happy with this race!
