Lake Lanier Islands Triathlon - Triathlon

Great swim. Open water has been great this year. I feel more and more confident in each race.

Not much that I would do differently. I do need to get a little more calm when feet are right in front of my face. My breathing and pulse jump when that happens.

This SUCKED!!! The swim time was longer along with the T1 time because of the race layout. There was a quarter mile run across a bridge/dock and up a huge hill after exiting the water.

Relax more and not let the hill get into my head. I knew it was coming but it still killed me. Again, I need more practice in T1.

Killed the bike segment. Great course. I still have more that I can push, but it was definitely one of my best ever bike splits. I really hit the gas hard based on what I learned from the race a month ago.

Still continue to push the limits and learn to go harder. There is more gas in the tank than a I ever thought.

Much better T2. This is getting much better and I'm feeling more comfortable.

Not much. I need to practice this, but I need to focus on T1 more than T2.

Great run for me! Again pushed myself harder than I ever have and it paid off. One of the best 5k times for me ever. Not just in triathlon.

Keep working on my speed. For the first time in my races, my run didn't cause be to be dropped way back in the pack.

Walked around and stretched. Grabbed some food. I finished so early the pizza wasn't there yet. Tried to stay in the shade as much as possible.


Keep training and pushing each time. I keep getting faster and faster with each race. I feel like I completely fulfilled what I was capable of right now. I know I will be faster though.


Great course and very fun race. Something does need to be done about T1. That's a killer! Way too early to have to go through something like that!. I highly recommend this race to someone that is interested in triathlon.
