The Couple's Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

This was a tough swim for me - not a strong swimmer at all - no problem with the hydrilla weeds until near the finish. Whew, I was spent and glad to finish.

got to get better in the swim - more pool/OWS time!! Overall swim was average for my ability level.

I was sooo exhausted from that swim that I took a little extra time but all went smoothly.

not be so tired from the swim!

Third time ever on this course - was glad I had done it a week earlier. Ended up walking 1/2 way up the hill after the right hand turn (litte Mr. 'Tard) 'cause the rider in front of me slowed too much before hand and I couldn't get around to get enough momentum to get my big body up without stopping - oh, well. But this would happen twice again - the same person - looked very fit going at a good pace but she would brake on the downhills - argh! At over 200 pounds I need full speed down those hills so that the uphills don't kill me. But the rest of the route was fine.

Be more assertive when it comes to passing - practice that damn hill!

Had a little trouble finding a spot for my bike several racked their bikes in a way that made it nearly impossible to rack mine with my transition gear, then when I did it knocked one of them off the rack - luckily away from their gears.

don't know

My run is soooo weak really my most difficult let - I was just so tired. My racing partner came out to run me in.

run more -

My first race with my own ChampionChip and have had some trouble getting my results (didn't have the chip when I registered). This was a fun race and is my only coed race this year - will take a little getting used to - not in a bad way. Glad the rest are women only for my first season though.
