Quantico Triathlon - Triathlon

since this was the first attempt with an open water swim at this event, I am hoping they get their act together and make sure the course is in water deep enough to swim. Don't think the ability to walk to the turn around bouy is fair or competitive

Need more open water swim practice

Used tri suit for first time and made a big difference. Of course I didn't have to deal with wet suit :) Even had time to whip the grass and sand from my feet with a towel before putting on socks.

had a good t-1 time as I didn't need to deal with a suit or putting on a top (used a tri suit) Made sure before my bike was in an easy gear to get started mount point was nice and flat and a small incline helped get up to speed quickly. Overall a good course with some challenging hills. Only con was the number of pot holes and rough road as well as the traffic you had to compete with. Best PR on the bike in time and speed (15.09mph)

Need to get a faster cadence

quick change of shoes and patella band, grab visor race belt and I'm on my way.

Need to really work on my run. I think I could be a lot more competitive if only I can get my run down to a respectable time

Great set up for finish, had everything there for you, grabbed water, sports drink and banana and cooled down walking to transition area to get bike and gear


I'm happy with both swim and bike, run time really kills me.


Very well organized and run. Tons of volunteers and everyone was fantastic. Would like to see them figure out a better run and swim course. I'll be back next year.
