Tempe International Triathlon - Olympic Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

This swim seemed long, but, I guess it was not according to the GPS. I felt good in the water, kept a steady stroke and was able to focus. I did not get into a big mix of swimmers. On the return leg, I was able to sight off another red cap swimming adjacent to me. As a result, I did not need to front sight for the bouy. When I got to the final red bouy, I was lucky enough to have been in perfect position to just pass on by, then head into take out

Swim faster

Good transition, the wetsuit was not that bad getting off.

just get faster

I had a great bike, don't think it was a true 40k distance. I challenged the hills very well and geared up and down well. I felt good off the bike and felt I had enough for the run when I started

fuel more on the bike

I missed my rack row and had to manuver down a differnet aisle to get to my spot

remember where my rack spot is

I bonked on the run. I still am having a problem getting my heart rate and breathing settled after leaving transition. I also, got very hot on the run. I wish there would have been some cold wet rags/towels readily available. The water stations did not have anyone passing them out. Also, gatorade was not on the course, this would have been nice.

I did not fuel enough. I should had taken another gu at the first or second aid station and I did not. Can't tell you why. Also, train, train, and train

I was hot when I finished, grabbed cold water, sat down, and got a cold towel


not fueled and hot


The event organizers know this is a hot event, why not combined some of the wave starts so we can all be in the water by 7am. Need cold towels and gatorade on the run course. Also, why is there never a beer garden at tri's?
