Pleasant Prairie Triathlon - Sprint - TriathlonSprint

I beat 1 person in my age group on the swim and I cam really close to another. I really did well for me. did not even back stroke at all. way faster than I though

Well I think more traiing would have helped. done better navigating would have helped also. seeing a couple of other black caps really gave me a boast even though I only passed them because they stopped a few times to rest.

Well I had problems getting my helmet on. Problem with the strap. I have not tried a moving bike jump on so I can with my shoes one. clean feet off nicely. Also wore a cycling jersay and that was hard to get on. Body was too wet and I need to dry off.

I probably should get a tri top. the jersay I think saved me time on the bike but the lost in transistionwas not good either. I felt I moved better than my first T1 I did but I had a slower time.

I cycled alot faster than I ever had before. passed a few people on the bike and I was chasing another one for awhile. one lady I passed jumped back on the course almost knocking me over. then she turn sharply in front of me.

new bike is what I need. new bike and more training.

guy put his bike right on my spot. in fact his bike was suppose to be a little farther over but he had a drying wet suit and put the bike in my bike's place. it was hard to get around him.

not much. getting the right shoes and practcing getting on and off the bike would help. Also used Transition as kinda of a rest spot. was able to see where my spot was thanks to a canadian flag.

Well I have some tendiatsis in my knee so I walked alot of it. I did run more than I thought I would. when the finish line came up I could not help but start running for it. I love finishing with nothing left

I wish I did not kick it in. my knee was killing me at the end. It was the ending of a great race and I do not think I cost myself too much with it. Maybe 2 extra days of problems.

iced my knee. packed up my stuff. found the other bters.


my knee caused me problems. lack of form in swimming and a good road/tri bike.


I really enjoyed it. It was fun. I liked it alot. I think I may do it next year but I hope to do the Oly instead.
