Bigfoot Triathlon - Olympic Distance - TriathlonOlympic

Always a slow swimmer. My dark goggles were fogging up constatnly. Could not see. This wasn't an A race, so i wanted to go through thing s properly and get it right.

NEW goggles

Slow transition. Was worried of being cold on bike. Took time to dry off and put on arm warmers. Wasn't in hurry

More practice, hurry more. Have shoes clipped in.

I was chilly as expected to start bike. Rolling smooth, but not fast. Had a small mechanical with derailluer cable, fixed in jiffy. Last 13 miles were good and fast, but too late

Need to race hard from get-go. I've got potential to, but need to work on things more. My attitude today was let's get put in the time and go through motions

Slow again. found rack ok, brought training shoes, so i had to tie them. Got fluids, gel ok.

Race shoes with Yankz! more urgency

Good Run. Been so weak running, that this was fun. Some say course was 6.5 miles, not sure. I was consitent and smart. Took endurolytes at water stops. Can't wait to come back.

Wear racing falts, not run lighthouse run day before and come to race healthy

none - reload on food


health. illness last 5 weeks and weight loss has weakend me. A healthy finish was a pleasure. I kept all food/liguids down during event.


Nice race - good perks. Course is well done, but not closed to traffic - be careful. Run course is good, but would like gel pks at 1 station. Post race isn't fancy, few fruits and chips and drinks. I'm planning on coming back in 2009
