Medical Lake Founders Day Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

There was a decent wind chop coming from the right which kind of kept it interesting. Caught a couple good drafts toward the middle of the lake and then started passing quite a few people the last 200 yards.

Not bad considering I haven't swam that much this spring. Felt pretty decent.

My best T1 ever I think. Got up the hill from the water pretty quickly, suit came off fast, shoes on and out pretty fast.

Nothing. Happy with this transition.

Pretty strong headwind in some places on the outbound half but then we had a tail wind for about the last 3-4 miles which helped even it out a bit. I pushed pretty hard today and felt it most of the ride. I'm not in near as good of shape as I was for this race last year so the bike took more out of me.

Just need more miles but that's ok since I'm planning my season to peak in November. This was an ok ride considering my conditioning.

Quick in and out of T2. Today's transitions were my best ever.

Nothing.

I knew this wasn't going to be a very good run and it wasn't. Haven't been running a whole lot yet this year, since I plan on peaking in November so this was just a get-what-I-can run and it would have to do.

Again, just a matter of more miles.

Hung out around the finish, ate watermelon and drank water.


Not enough miles, especially running.


I got to race with my brother in his first race ever!! That was really cool, even though he trashed me! I won't spoil his RR here but he did fantastic, to say the least! I'm really proud of him!
This race has is getting bigger and more competitive every year. The winning time this year was 50 minutes. Not too shabby for a little race in a little town. This is always a good first race of the year.
