Danskin Women's Triathlon - Austin - TriathlonSprint

better - didn't get freaked out - navigated better

I need to swim harder/faster

put gloves on during ride - but put shoes on in T1 - dirt made it so I could run in shoes
put gels in shoes - didn't forget them! - 2 mins faster than last time.

take bucket for feet filled w/water

hills hills everywhere - hooray for sportlegs - gel at start, cytomax throughout - endurathon by EAS is horrid tasting.

The road was also horrid - potholes, rough patches - I think my fork shook loose a bit. I felt like the bike was just going to shake apart.

add another gel at mile 10 or 11 to prep for run

2 mins faster than last time - yay yanks! Gel in shoe - remembered it.

tough - took a gel right at start - ugh - was too much digestion for running. slowed me down - I ended up walking a bit on hills as not to puke.

Last hill a sister helped me out by egging me on to run up the hill. Thanks girl! Finished ok.

Gel end of bike, not start of run!

walk, banana, water, crackers, a swig or two cytomax


hills were killer. I need to push more on the swim and work on kick


tough course - makes the CapTex look easy, almost like a luxury race in comparison. I enjoyed the captex much more - better swag - better post race - but the vibe of the all woman race was great as was the pep talk and high-five at the end.

The road stinks for the bike race - I thought my fillings were going to vibrate out.
