SoBe Mossman Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

This course was much longer than 1/2 mile. Good for me...not for the rest of the racers :) Considering I have not really done much swimming in the last 3 weeks I think this is pretty good. 2nd in wave -I think it was a guy or relay swimmer in front of me...

not much

Ugh, my transitions sucked today. I could have easily gone sub 1:14 had I had better transitions. First -i couldn't find my bike -though the numbering system was kinda funky -then I realized I was right in front of all of my stuff. While running into transition area I was able to get my wetsuit of to my hips and cap and goggles off which was good. Wetsuit got stuck on ankles though at transition area. Also, need to learn to get the bike shoes clipped in and put on while racing versus putting socks and shoes on before getting on bike.

see above.

Bike actually felt pretty good considering I hadly had any time on the bike in the last 4 weeks!

Need to work on technical stuff -turning and cornering, otherwise other than being in shape I was pretty happy.

Ugh -another crappy transition -First I need to get the hang of getting my shoes off while on the bike -instead I just stopped and basically forgot how to get off the bike -in the process was able to get a cramp in right calf (luckily worked itself out quickly). Then when I went to rack the bike it toppled over so had to re-rack.

see above

PR on run -OK -I know I'm not fast but this was the first time I have ever gone sub 8 min miles in a race. Breathing and pace felt pretty good the entire time -even felt strong at the end (though two guys sprinted past me).

not much

continued jogging after finish until HR went down


CRAPPY TRANSITIONS


Extremely well run race -great swag too :) Drywick shirts for all competitors. SoBe (sponsor) beach chairs for top three in each AG.
