Got a severe calf cramp 10yds. into swim. I had to stop twice to stretch it out. Couldn't kick most of swim. I'm usually in top three out in my wave. 45-49's were the 7th wave, lots of people to swim around.

Comments:

Calfs were cramping. Pace very slow. I didn't expect run to be very good with achilles injury in May & lack of run training.
What would you do differently?:

Need to run more consistently.

Warm down:

Bagels, gatorade, shower.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Cramps & lack of run training/miles.

Event comments:

Good first tri of season. An eye opener. I need more run training & more power on the swim. I'll make sure I eat a banana(potassium) & hopefully prevent cramping in the future.
