Maumee Bay Olympic Triathlon - Triathlon

Swim was OK? spent the first 200meters or so trying to adjust my wetsuit. Then after that had to tread water for a few mins to get my mind from telling myself that I couldnt swim that far and I should give up....

Not try out a new wetsuit on race day. And better prepare myself mentally.

T1 was slow, still trying to calm myself down.

Not overthink the transition.

Bike went well besides the set of rumble strips I hit which left me a little sore. But other than that I felt good on the bike.

Watchout for rumble strips.

I was dehydrated after the bike so I decided to drink half a bottle of Gatoraid and chug as much water as I could hold. This was a BAD idea but seemed like a good one at the time.

Dont drink so much in the Transition.

I had to stop and vomit all the fluid in my stomach around 1.5miles into the race. Had to do this a few times in the course and couldnt stop my stomach from cramping. Had to walk a few times. By far my worst run after a bike segment. but I made it and thats all I wanted to accomplish.

I was glad a few of the runners asked me if I needed medical on the run. However it was embarassing but I think they picked up that i was struggling, eventhough I though i was trying to hide it. Thank you!

Train harder on running after biking.

sit in the shade.


Stomach cramps in the run and just didnt have anything left during the Run.


Loved the race and the volunteers.
