Las Vegas Triathlon at Storrie Lake - TriathlonOlympic

Had a good start, but couldn't keep pace and slowly kept losing ground. I didn't feel like my effort justified my time, but the clock doesn't lie.

Maybe not go out quite so fast, and try to hold a faster overall pace.

My shirt got stuck on my wet back as did socks and forcing feet into shoes, but I'm not sure trying to dry off would have saved any time.

Focus on efficiency rather than hurrying.

It was a good ride, I took one gu at the beginning and one around mile 18. Again, I felt the time was slow for the effort exerted, but I'm happy with the effort and I'll take the experience points.

Drink more. I only drank what was needed to make the gu taste go away, and early in the run I could tell that wasn't enough.

I'm not sure, but I believe this is my first bike-run trans under 1 min. It felt smooth and I even ate 2 shotblocks.

Nothing.

I had a descent run, seemed to recover quicker than last time, but had to walk in a couple spots--likely not drinking enough. It felt like I slowly gained speed throughout the race.

Drink more on the bike to prep for run.

Walked around.


Really unsure here. Possibly need to drink more. Could have been diet too--should concentrate on plenty of protein and carbs leading up to it. Possibly the slight increase in altitude.


For the size of the field (~140), the competition is some of the best I've seen. Course is tough, but good times are still attained.
I did expect more than water and some fruit for a $60 entry fee.
