Island Lake Triathlon Series 1 - TriathlonSprint

did the entire swim freestyle. My first time ever that I didn't have to breast stroke. I was pretty excited, sighting was great. I didn't get caught by the wave behind and I even caught several of the guys from the wave in front of me. HUGE Confidence booster.

Need to continue to work on swimming.

Dropped the goggles and the cap on the way into T1. had to go back and get them. Suit came off ok. dropped my gel on the way out on the bike, had to go back and get it. So T1 was a little slow. Also had to put the race belt on. friggin sucked

Quit dropping crap. Need to practice starting with the shoes on the bike. I still haven't gotten that figured out.

Bike was good, wasn't really prepared for the hills. I haven't been trainig like i should lately so the bike really isn't progressing past my last race.

work on handling.

The idiot next to me had his wetsuit on my rack so pulled it off there and threw it on the ground. Slid the shoes on, grabbed the other gel and off i went.

Run didn't go to bad it was a 2 loop and it was really warm. I made it thru 3/4 of a mile and that friggin side stitch came back. walked for about 30 seconds and then decided to run thru it. The second lap it was still warm. each mile was progressivly faster so I probably could have gone out a little faster. Once again lack of training this past month is really showing thru. My Oly plan starts in a week or so, so I'll be back to a structured plan.

need to run more, maybe a few more bricks

walked around ate some tortilla chips


Race was good, they were organized running events. took a little bit for them to do trophies. This was a smaller race, 163 people overall. This was my first event with this race organization, I was really impressed. They had their stuff together. I will definetly race with them again.
