Comments:

Overall happy with my performance. My form was sloppy at times, but there were a lot of bad swimmers I had to navigate around and it was hard to get into a groove. I met my goal, which was to keep a moderate pace and make sure I had good energy to move through T1.
What would you do differently?:

I was the last person from my wave. I should try to get to the front next time in order to avoid getting stuck behind some of the weaker swimmers.

Comments:

Really nice course, the roads were smooth, and good volunteer support along the way. I didn't train for the bike, so I felt slow out there and I burned my legs out for the run.
What would you do differently?:

Train for the bike.
Transition 2
  • 01m 28s
What would you do differently?:

Get zip laces
Run

  • 3.4 miles

Comments:

Quads started cramping during the second half of the course, but I was happy with my pace.
What would you do differently?:

If I train for the bike next year, I can probably shave a couple minutes off my run time.

Event comments:

A short but nice swim on Farm Pond. Beautiful bike ride through the countryside and along Charles River. Hilly running course through a quiet suburban neighborhood. Good breakfast served at the end. Overall a great race.
