IM Ohio 70.3 - Triathlon

Good swim. My navigation was good. Some bumping on the course, nothing too bad.

Happy with the swim

Transition went well.

I was doing ok on the bike, until mile 55 and then the waterfall opened up and I started vomiting. I am really good at throwing up and not losing cadence, just don't pass me.

I need to figure out nutrition. I may be taking in more carbs than my stomach can handle. I need to figure this out before I race again.

I struggled with my shoes and took way to long in transition.

It was rough. Everything that came in went right back out. On my second lap, it started to rain and hard. My shoes were soaked. Then it got rainforest hot.

I need to work on nutrition. I may be taking in too many carbs. I did not do well.

Everything was soaked and it felt good to be done. I need to work on nutrition. Could not eat until 2:30 the next morning


I got sick.


It was a good race, the problem was me. I need to figure out why I'm getting sick during my races. It may be too many carbs. I did better than normal with the heat. I did take salt pills and that probably helped.
Since we had a long ride home, I took a truck stop shower. That was a gamechanger, especially for my wife riding with me. Thankfully she drove home and I slept.
