Blue and Gold Tri - Triathlon

Dive in kinda knocked the wind out of me. Turns were pretty bad too. Kept reverting to looking down the lane for some reason. Exit was try to jump out of poolin 11.5' water. I think i must have looked like a walrus trying to sumit a beachhead, although, they are probably more graceful than i was.

Use the ladder to get out of the pool!!

Felt good. Fast for me.

Overall i felt pretty good about the bike. Only passed by one person, but didn't pass anyone myself. Was aiming for 16mph

Practice the hills!! I also had no clue about the course, so I was somewhat tenative at some turms.

Could have done better here. Didnt take helmet off while running bike. Didnt take gloves off until i was on the run. I put them in my race belt, but probably wouldnt be able to do that if i needed to put gu in there too. Changed socks to avoid blisters on toes

Multitask!

Couldn't keep my hr down! Ran almost whole distance, but did walk through water stations and whenever my hr got over 174. Goal was 14'/ mile

Not much. It was a pretty good run for me.

Nothing. Ate hald a turkey sandwich, drank some water and gatorade. Then packed up transition and waited for awards


Swim could have been a little better. Run is big limiter, but I know that.


Nice, small race with associated kids races for families. It was a little late in starting (prerace meeting started five minutes after race was supposed to start). Several volunteers didn't show, so they were a little light on volunteers. Overall, it is a nice race in a good environment. Awards are given to top three in all categories. RD seems to know everyone's name, which is pretty cool when you don't know a lot of people in the race and you hear someone calling your name.
