Tri To Beat Cancer Triathlon - Triathlon

Time trial start made the swim a pain. There was no seeding of peoples performance and the 5 second count in between was very fast. From start to finish, it was just a mass of people. It made the swim uncomfortable.

Nothing much I could have done better. It came down to race organization for it to be easier on people swimming.

Lost time because I forgot to get the swimskin off prior to getting on the shoes. Probably could have picked up 30 seconds from that mistake

Practice practice practice. I keep putting off practicing transitions and it kills me on race day.

Very nice course. I was very happy with my bike performance today. The final 5 miles of the course were great for me. I need to learn how to push a little more throughout the entire race.

Practice more on the trainer with an long term even power output.

Much better T2 this race. Things went much better today.

Just like T1, I need more practice at this.

Good run for me. I felt comfortable on the run for the first time this year. Just like the bike I need to work on pushing the pace to what I did on the last mile. The last mile of the run was great for me. The second mile, which had a lot of climbing, was hard.

Walked around while drinking water near the finish line. Stayed in the shade to drop down the core temp.


Better transitions, better management in the swim (dealing with large amount of bodies through the entire swim), and build up more endurance. Tough as this is my first year back and only my 3rd race in 3 years!


Great race! I love the course. It was well organized but they need to figure out how to manage the swim portion better. If you are going to do a time trial start on the swim, please ask for a projected swim time and then organize your numbers and starting based on that. It will make for a much more enjoyable swim leg.
