TRI Aggieland Sprint Triathlon - Triathlon

Not bad after working hard in Jan / Feb, then moving and having no indoor pool in the area.

Still need to get in the pool more, but another month the pools will be open!

Had to walk until you got out of the building, but felt good to run it! Made a rookie mistake and left sunglasses in my bag, so had to unzip bag, move to bike and continue with my T1. Was 6 seconds faster than my projection

Work on my transitions for next race

Felt good, but when the wind was quartering / headwind, slowed me up by about 4-5 mph. Wet roads but seemed very safe, still watched the turns and any paint/tape on roads, but not passed by anyone that stuck (2xpasses) and passed many. Was 3:07 slower than my projection

Still maintain/improve my fitness, seems I let up too much into the wind, with the wind put the hammer down. Will get aero wheels next year!

Got a few comments about never seeing anyone run that fast with a bike into T2, so not too bad! Still should have been better, need to set up multisport mode for the Garmin next time, but grabbed everything and went pretty fast. Was 16 seconds slower than my projection

Set up multisport mode next time, had quick release watch strap on and that worked great, plus grabbing belt and running with it works well. Still gotta work on no sock running!

Was 9 seconds faster than my projection, so about right, need to get some good speed work in for next race!

Work a bit on speed and continue to build my base mileage!

Had a nice lady unzip my top, and walked around until I realized I hadn't stopped my watch, oops, got some gatorade got my bag and hit the showers for a nice HOT shower that helped. They cancelled the awards due to rain


Need more swim, bike and run fitness, but not a bad opener for me


Wasn't too bad, but very hard to hear in the Natorium, body marking was ugly (wrong tipped markers, conflicting guidance given to volunteers), but the weather didn't help that out much. Course marshalling wasn't too bad, some of the volunteers looked like they didn't want to be there (don't blame them, it was 52 and rainy!) but still thanked them all as I headed pass them and cheered them up a little! Would have been much better on a sunny day, but good job despite the sucky weather!
