What would you do differently?: Draft a little more, and run all the way through to transition. It is tough run from water to transition, up a sand hill. Got out of water at 14:30, but took 2 minutes with wetsuit on to get to transition. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Not bad in terms of form, but that sand run zapped me. Took a little while getting through it. What would you do differently?: Need to work on transitioning when tired. Your mind starts to struggle, so I need to work on transition at a E4 HR. ![]() Bike
Comments: Lost my water bottle near the 10 mile mark, so was left a little dehydrated. I was getting passed early, but I kept my strategy and sped up the final 6 miles and passed most of the people that passed me. ENDURANCE BABY. What would you do differently?: Try and pump even harder, but that will come with more hill training ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Slow time, I was putting on my belt in transition??? And my shoes weren't slipping on because my feet were still damp. What would you do differently?: Loosen up my shoes so I can slip in even with wet feet. Run without soick more than a week before, tearing up my heels on Tuesday because my shoes weren't good for sockless hurt. I cut out the heel so I was fine for the race, but worrying about the bandaids cost me a little time. ![]() Run
Comments: Not the best run, but I happy with the overall time. I need to work on the this for WF. Speed is the key to success and faster times. If I can get it around 7:30-45 I will be dancing in the streets. What would you do differently?: More water on the ride ![]() Post race
Warm down: Walked it out and had lunch What limited your ability to perform faster: Training and my weight Event comments: This is second annual Strawberryfields Triathlon. And it is better than last year. But I do have one complaint. Many of the volunteers in the remotes locations had some sort of ailment (crunches, wheel chair, etc.) A guy in front of my went down on the ride and she couldn't do anything to help him out. He was ok, but jsut scary. Last updated: 2007-05-07 12:00 AM
