Three Sports Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

The swim was really rough, I was completely gassed in the pool.

Train much harder in the swimming portion, I get fatigued easily in the water due to poor technique.

I though I did okay on this portion, it was a long run from my rack to the mount point.

Try to clip shoes to bike before the race and jump on. This will take a lot of coordination though.

This was my first bike for time on a slightly beat up Scwinn Prelude 14 speed with absolutely awful shifting action, tires not being pumped to correct PSI, and

I just purchased a triahtlon specific bike, Motobecane Nemesis Pro, that should help a lot. Also I should get more time in the saddle to become more comfortable in turns and gear changing.

I did not tie my shoes down and just slipped them on. That was a huge mistake. I ended up blistering badly.

Get speed laces to tie my shoes fast, and not run into blisters from friction in my shoe.

I would have run much faster had I not gotten blisters on both feet within the first 800 meters. I also had a hard time transitioning from biking to running and felt very stiff for the first half of the race.

Buy speed laces to cinch my shoe up tightly and avoid blisters.

Stretching, stretching and more stretching.


Blisters, crappy bike, not enough time to train in the pool.


This was my first triathlon and I had an absolute blast. I look forward to competing in future tris
