Show Me State Games Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

Had a 3 way battle coming into the water with another girl and a guy. we were swimming right over one another. eek.

good swim. I was out near the front so there wasnt much of a drafting chance. However, I would have relaxed a little more at about 500-700- yards and sat on the guys hip and liet him pull me instead, then charged the last 100.

guesstimate on time.

good transistion for me. i'm happy wiht it.

lost chain. 3 times. twice up hill shifting into little ring, one downhill shifting into big ring. ? SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP.

go faster? :)

guesstimate on TA time again here. I had a hard time getting my race belt to snap while running, but wasnt bad

this was good.

HHmm. started out pretty slowly. it was 17:00 exactly to 1.5 but I came back in closer to 15. I really picked up the pace, shortened my stride. I felt like I was waivering, but i was going FORWARD not up so i went faster.

go faster again? wear socks.

walking around, stretching


the chain issues. trying to pick up speed on the run.


The course was great. Wish I could have found out PRIOR to the race. The course was not marked by the evening before, nor were maps or directions available. ...major disappointment. I like to drive or ride the bike and run courses prior to the race and this was not possible. While the venue was beautiful, the water in the swim was so murky there was NO visability .. like in a dark room with a blanket over your head.

Hats off to the volunteers on the bike course helping to control traffic. They did a great job. It was an open course, but they had intersection held up for us.
