The Lobsterman - TriathlonOlympic

Course seemed short and the 2nd leg was directly into a low sun and you could not see the bouys. Mostly just followed the pack. Did OK and not too much hand to hand combat. Course needed more bouys especially the leg into the sun.

swim faster and try to draft better

wetsuit zipper stuck and very difficult getting the wetsuit off, it seemed to take forever.

Other that the suit coming off everything went smooth

Great ride on the new bike! Lots of hill climbs

work on leg strength and try to maintain a cadence of at least 70

pretty smooth T2 had to rack bike amongst other peoples stuff thrown all over

Legs started out very stiff especially the calfs. Slowly worked in but on the steep hill at mile .5 / 5.5 I power walked up it which seemed to loosen calfs up a bit and kept me moving as fast as everyone around me

RUN RUN RUN More need to improve the run segment to make me happy

Fluid intake and had some bananas and PB with a couple of oreo's. Did some stretching of the legs.


Just took this as a training segment and wanted to push harded than I did.


Race got off about 10 mins late due to traffic problems coming in to the park. The weather ended up nice for the event although the water was a little cold from some cool weather. Post race entertainment kind of got washed out in the evening due to fog and rain but it held out for the Lobsterbake. Only things I would change for the weekend was to have more guide bouys for the swim, needed more water at the finish, and they needed a port-a-pottie out on the run course for those emergencies that might arise.
