Comments: Definitely need practice sighting in open water - I switch to breaststroke occasionally to sight the buoys, and feel like I slow down a lot for this. What would you do differently?: Better sighting, better drafting - interested in trying out a wetsuit to see what difference it makes. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Steep hill heading up to transition - oof. Decent speed once I got to the bike. What would you do differently?: Need to learn how to do the shoes clipped in to pedals start. ![]() Bike
Comments: Definite improvement since my last event - and still the biggest room for improvement. Can't wait until my pace is at 20mph!! What would you do differently?: Wasn't aggressive during turns - been a little over-cautious since my last spill. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: First time with bagged shoes - it wasn't a disaster, but definitely threw me out of sorts. Racked my bike to the right of my bag, and then had to get around the bike to get to it. Nothing really flowed well after that. ![]() Run
Comments: Definitely need to train running longer distances - probably 10k long runs and more brick sessions. I'm just worn out and not used to starting the 5k already spent. I can complete a 5k distance fine starting fresh, but struggle a lot with it. Still, did much better than last event. ![]() Post race
Event comments: Really nice location, lots of volunteer support. Having two separate transition areas was a little stressful, but very nice that they transported all gear from T1 to T2 at end of race. Overall, improved my time by 10 minutes, improved the areas I'd focused on in training, and feel good about progress. Expect to continue to improve next season!! Last updated: 2013-09-30 12:00 AM
