Soma Quarterman Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

I had some navigation problems. As this is my strong suit, I decided to start on the bouy line and try and get out front. I didn't sight well, so I rounded the bouys poorly. For some reason, I thought the course was going to be more rectangular and went way off course after the 2nd bouy.

Navigate better

Pretty good transition once I got the suit off. Coming out of the water, I did have trouble unzipping, but they had some folks there (not wetsuit strippers) to help out with this.

Not much other than get my suit off

I thought I did a good job. This is my weakest link and I feel I've made significant strides in improving over the summer. I'm happy with my performance, but would love to continue to improve.
The RR already had 28 miles, but my computer showed 30.2.
Also, lots of 180 degree turnarounds on this course.

Not much. I really worked hard on my cadence and speed.

Pretty quick transition that would've been quicker if I had put my hat/visor out (it was still in my transition bucket/stool). I ripped the lid off and grabbed my visor and was off.

Make sure all my equipment is out and ready.

Good run. I felt strong (exceot for some hills) and think that I could've run fatser. I finished strong and still had as in the tank.

Even though I kept a real good pace, I know I can run faster.

Hugs from my girls (both daughters, wife, and dog). I walked around and stretched. I stood in line for a massage, but grew tired of waiting and went to look for eveyone else.


Just me.


I didn't see any fellow BTer's postrace (except Sally - who finished on my heels) because of an error. I milled around awhile and then decided to get my stuff and change clothes. Well, dumb me, I took my bike out of transition when I went to my car. Now what am I going to do with it? Realizing my mistake, I decided to head off. Please excuse my lack of support - I am sorry.
