Got hit in the face and knocked my mask off right off the bat. Made the mistake of starting in the middle and could not get a clean line to swim in until half way through the swim.

go to the outside to start the swim, stay out of the fray!

Long run .3+ miles to transition area

Nothing felt I did a good job in transition even though this was my first race of the year.

Felt like a good ride.

slow down a little at the beginning to get my legs warm and let my heart rate settle down. needed more fluids and more electrolytes!

Need to work on getting off of the bike, can't get out of shoes on the bike which slows down the dismount, don't want to fall on my butt because I slipped .

Practice transitioning off bike

Legs felt strong other than cramping, If only I can quit cramping??
I was hoping to be able to keep no more than a 9min mile pace, but always felt i was going to severely cramp up if I pushed it too much.

take more electrolytes on the bike, more water and gatorade sooner into the run

Not much, cool towel and lingered around the finish line waiting for team mates.


Cramps!!!


Nice race, but there really should have been some better food! they said that they would have hamburgers and such, but those were chargeable items and we could not get into the transition area for almost 2 hours after the finish to get wallet.
Overall good race that I look forward to doing next year.
