Dousman Duathlon - Duathlon

OK run- I am really not used to running just 2 miles- so was kind of different to try to push hard- rather then find a comfortable pace. Started at the front of my wave and there was one other girl that was just in front of me the whole time.


More speed work. This was OK.

Really not a very great transition- I mean all I had to do was change shoes and throw on my helmet. I dont feel like I screwed around with anything?

?????

I am really disappointed with this bike time. There is no reason I shouldnt have done 20 miles in an hour. Someone said they had 21 miles for the bike segment though?? Then 1:02 would be acceptable. There were a couple nice hills- but the downhills were sweet. I do have to say I have finally gotten comfortable on the bike- and I think I am way less of a chicken then I was even a month ago. I passed A LOT of people on the bike. I started in wave 15 so I guess that has something to do with it. Oh yeah- I KNEW jmwebs was in fornt of me I think he started 2 waves before me and it ws fun to know there was someone I knew uo there to catch (but I didnt- he was pretty fast!)

I dont know- Im not the best climber and I think in a 20 mile bike I probaly could have stood and pounded up the hills rather then easy spin up. Need to do A LOT of hill work for next season.

Still not the best transition. What the heck am I doing in there??

Well going faster would be a good start :)

Well once I started running I realized I havent done any bricks since Pigman- oops. I felt like I wasnt moving a at all. Not much to say about a 2 mile run I guess.

I think I probaly could have run harder- but really just didnt feel like it, 7:10 s were plenty fast for me :)

Nothin. Talked to the girl who passed me on the first run and then the bike and then the 2cnd run.... so I guess my T times were better than someones :)
5th in my AG, 18th overall women- pretty much the norm for me in a race like this


Not much speed work- I was pretty much endurance training most of the season


Wanted to finish under 1:30- so pretty close. Run times were pretty close to what I expected. This race was bigger then I thought it would be too. It was a good race- always more fun when I win something though:)
