Central Florida Triathlon #4 - TriathlonSprint

This swim felt a lot easier than the previous three races I've done here but I ended up 3 seconds slower than my fastest time.

Train first

Had to go back to the rack because my shoe clipped my neighbors setup and I didn't want to leave his gear strewn about everywhere. That cost me a couple of seconds there.

Try to be cleaner exiting Transition.

****Will have to come back to this after the T2 split becomes available online.

I think my stressful week and the bad night's sleep really had an affect on me for this race. I did not have that extra gear or ability to push the pace and really compete. The bike leg was definitely affected.

Maybe having a hand towel would be beneficial despite the time cost. I seemed to have trouble with my socks this time due to my wet feet.

Tried to hang tough by "racing" my previous PR time on this course using my watch settings. I immediately felt low-energy and knew I would not have the extra gear needed to put down the hammer.
I did have one goal to try and catch my closest competitor on the overall points list and I think I actually did it so there's a good takeaway.

Just prep better during the week leading up to raceday.

Took on water and watermelon slices and cooled down pretty well.


Just my bad prep during the week leading up to the event and the horrible night's sleep that I got. I was not well rested and felt sluggish the entire race.


Great event and theme. Also, being part of a race series, it's great to know you have the same metrics being measured in order to compare all 4 results.
