Big East Triathlon - Challenge Distance Course - Triathlon

swim was really rough, they had to cut it down with no swimming against the tide. I started well but got tight chested after 200 metres and almost quit but doggy paddled for a while and managed to finish but not last. yay

more open water swim training, position myself better for the turns from the start.

as the first transition was going to take a while I put my shoes on in transition, I need to set my transition up much better.

T1 position 59th average compared to most

have everything ready beforehand,

the bike started well getting upto speed and going into a 30 mph headwind for 9 miles. my arse end kicked out 5 times on the oily road. this is the best time that I have done this course in.

stick to my pace, every time I saw someone ahead it was an excuse to push hard.

came into T2 and had to find some dry socks my feet were numb.

T2 position 77th very slow compared to others

make sure my transition is set out properly could have been a lot faster

i don't think i could have given it any more as i chased down 3 guys in the last mile but my legs were shattered running into the wind and along the sea wall.

I definitely spent to much on the bike.

none


a great starter race was just a shame about the weather.
