Caveman Triathlon - Triathlon

As usual, I self-seeded appropriately, even though to do so I have to lie on my registration and put about 30-45 seconds faster than I'm capable of. Just goes to show that people do not know how to self-seed at all. I think I got passed by 2 people and I passed 2 people. So, it was very even. I'd only swam a handful of times before the race and that was it for the past year. I didn't really lose much swim fitness over the past year either.

Felt strong coming out of the water and had a good T1

Didn't push it on the bike because I wanted to have a good run. I had also not done any kind of specific race prep and probably would've cooked my legs if I had gone hard.

Nothing good or bad. Just a regular T2

Just stayed within my normal pace range like I do on every run.

Stretching and that was it


I did zero race prep and have just been doing my normal workouts all year. I wanted to see how I'd perform like this.


Nice easy course and I like the venue. Last year's swim was only 1 second faster on the swim and about 3 minutes faster on bike and run each. I was really trying on the run last year and just didn't care too much this year.
