Crystal River Sprint Triathlon Series #1 - TriathlonSprint

Started out slow, currently breathing every other stroke. Breathing unilaterally as it is difficult for me to breathe out of left side

Practicing breathing every fourth stroke as well as breathing bilaterally.

Overshot bike rack, had to circle back. Placed shoes on, have not practiced starting bike with shoes arleady clipped in. Have not really practiced transitions at all for that mattter.

Start practicing transitions.

This was the fastest ride for me in my limited number of triathlons. I have now had a bike for a little over a year and my time on the bike this year is already greater than all of last year combined. Have really been focusing on bike segment trying to do at least two group rides a week just to get more time in saddle versus last year. Nice to see training pay off

Continue to put in the time training.

As mentioned in T1, I have not really practiced transitions. Need to do so.

Practice transitions.

So far, running has always been my best discipline, which isn't a surprise as that is mybackground. My training miles for running are down this year versus last I have tried to focus more and the bike (and reluctantly swimming). Times have not suffered that much as of yet, which was a little surprising. Ran pretty even splits, a little negative on the last mile (about 10 seconds)

Nothing really

Dank some water and gatorade, ate two hot dogs. Guess that's why I'm still a Clydesdale!


I'm a poor swimmer, probably need lessons. Need to practice transitions.


Fun race, like the course.
