Cranberry Trifest - Olympic Course - Triathlon

Felt good on swim. Comfortable. Positive self talk. No issues. water was a bit warm for a full suit.

Happy with time. Not a fast swimmer anyway. got up out of water at just under 30 mins. a bit better than average for me.

If I can keep this pace for IMFL I will be alright.

A bit too long in T-1. Couple minor things but 30-45 secs slower than I would like. I thin the sock thing on wet feet was the issue.

not wear socks for bike

Felt solid on the bike. Worked on Cadence control and staying aero in aero helmet. Had good times passing people until caught up with the Baystate Tri crews. Played tag with a couple strong bikers. Hit some good speeds on the flats and rollers.

faster thanT-1 which usually isnt the case. Tying shoes instead of speed laces was a bit slower but what the hell I aint gonna be on the podium!

Had a tough belly cramp right off the bike. Wasnt sure I was going to shake it.Slow going at first getting that thing resolved. Didn't feel real stellar but just kept the feet moving. Legs a bit toasted after the bike and racing the sprint the day before.

Worked on getting under 3 hours. Made it by 5 mins.

feet in ice bath. cool down. Chat with some peeps.


speed work.


Cranberry is a great race. I think it is still good but a bit less than in the past. Post race cookout wasnt as festive or plentiful as past.
