Simple 20 lengths in the outdoor pool with a bit of running to the mats. Under 10 mins for the actually swimming so good enough.

Focused on keeping as steady as possible with the climbs and descents (still ranged up to 65 km/hr). Wind wasn't terrible but present.


What would you do differently?:

Push harder

Fastest run split in the race, left a bit too much on the bike I guess.

Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

No deviation from IM training plan just dumped the race in the middle of the week.


Event comments:

Super organized, the results actually were posted (unlike the Oly 2 weeks ago).

A good little short course race with some of the faster guys coming out.
