Terre Haute Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

felt like aslug in the water. I couldn't get any speed at all. Couldnt' catch a draft and didn't know where I was going. Really dissapointing swim

go to the swim talk and try to have higher expectations for myself

the Transition times were added into the bike and run I think? not sure where the times are but I was ok. ran in sandals from the beach and recovered pretty quickly but got stuck in my suit

went out with intentions of really taking it easy so as not to blow out my legs. Was really not expecting to feel so good. I kept telling myself to take it easy but I didn't have to that much. ran out of gear and had to get out of the saddle twice on the hills. I need to check my gearing.

i'm bummed the transitions weren't timed because I'm getting good at that shoe thingy.

started out with no feet for 2 miles or so which was wierd. I tripped a couple times until I got my rythm. started out sloshy and crampy for a mile or so also. felt great but I was afraid to push it becauise I haven't done a lot of fast runs longer than 3 miles. I was afraid of runnign out of steam, which I did but not until the trail at the end. I really thought I would puke going over the last hill.

train for the distance! drink less at the end of the bike.

don't fall over or throw up.


lack of trust in myself.
lack of training for distance.



great race! I could have used some water on the run, which there wasn't. Not one. gatorade, yes but not a drop of water. I don't like the no chip thing at all. I don't trust the splits and I want to know my transition times. but I loved the race and will be back next year.
