Emmett's Most Excellent Triathlon - Olympic Course - Triathlon

Water was so murly-dark dark brown, couldn't see hands in front of my face. This tool some getting used to. This was one of my better swims-felt relaxed, no anxiety moments. Had good solid pace throughout.. sighting on the return leg could have been better-i was tryinh to stay clear of the faster females coming behind me. Warm up was short. Instead of starting way in the back, i started wider. I like this.

Nothing.

unracked bike to find a rubber band broken and shoe dragging the dirt.. Spent a few anxious seconds trying to reattach rubber band. Finally jusyt riped shoe off and ran out of T1 with shoe in hand. I've got to work on getting into my shoes, because I'm struggling and swerving all over the place.

better attachment points for rubberbands.

GO EASY was the mantra. Also wanted to test some hydration/nutrition startegies for 70.3 Hammer perpetum was a bit too strong. Was starting to get kinda full and sloshy by the run.

mix nutrition weaker or try Heed instead. Bike fitness isn't there...yet, but It'sot horrible

I thought i nailed the transistion, but I got beat by alot of guys coming out of T2. Wow.

nothing

Nutrition of bike started to catch up with me. I was having a hard time taking any water and my mouth was drying out. Little sips here and there, but mostly on my head and back.

Bike nutrition has to change-have to be able to get calories and hydrate without ruining my run.

Stumbled around, talked to friends, went pee. Gathered my stuff, lost me helmet and drove home.


fitness and nutrition


I wish all of Boise's triathlons were ran as good. I did an Xterra event that completely SUCKED compared to this.
