Rage in the Sage - Sprint Distance - TriathlonSprint

Didn't practice unclipping/dismounting while trying to hurry. People were yelling slow down/unclip so I did too early and it was awkward trying to get off my bike.

Be better hydrated and eat much more/better prior to teh race. Also drink more while riding.

Road racing shoes take too long to get off

Get tri bike shoes...have a gel ready to take with me on the run

First aid station the volunteer was saying water and was handing out heed or gatorade...almost choked on it since I was expecting water and not a sticky sweet drink. I felt very comfortable the whole way.

Push a lot harder. My training runs were more than a minute faster per mile. Take my garmin to track my pace better.

Ate half a banana, drank some water, walked around looking for people I knew. Put all my stuff away. Ate a greasy hamburger.


food/hydration prior to the race


They weren't ready to go after the swim was canceled. I expected more stuff to happen after the race. Not sure if this was normal or if the MTB races I've done happened to have more.
