Triangle Triathlon - Triathlon

Once again, the 750m swim was not. It was longer. The swim was pretty good all things considered. I began with freestyle as usual and about 50-75m in, I switched to breast stroke and that's were I remained until the end. Didn't hydrate nor did I swim on my back at all.

Hit the pool more and spend time in the water.

Sockless saved a ton of time again. Not as good as my last of 0:48s but fast enough to take first in T1!!

Run faster! T-times are definitely picking up since I went sockless. Now if I could be just a bit more consistent. Nearly a minute longer than my last race, not here. BUT, that's because a the courses are structured differently. I'm satisfied!

Pushed the bike hard. I passed around 15+ riders. Blew by some like they were sitting still. Got some excellent speed on a few of the down hills.

Work hills, if I could find some..

7th of 14 in T2. Dropped my T2 big time. My last race was 1:07, This was twice as long even though I had a running dismount. Don't know why it took so long. Perhaps it had to do with me being at the opposite end of the Run Start. Need to check my 310XT because I only used it for the run.

Not sure. Perhaps take it easier on the bike.... ?

Hamstrings were a bit tight following the ride even though I I popped three salt tabs plus. Off road is a bit confusing. Glad I ran with the 310XT to watch;.

Need to hit the road more often. Also need to run off road prior to this race next year in order to prepare belter.

Drank a Sprite and a water, and ate a piece of pizza. Walked a .3/4mi back to the truck.


Training, or the lack thereof.


Looking forward to registering for this race next year for my fourth time. Recommend this race if you are considering.
