Mighty Man Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

started in middle of pack and couldn't get clear water until 3/4 to first buoy. I was breathing every stroke for first 3-400 meters, then settled down into nice rhythm.

start race in front of pack on starting line. do some warm up swimming before hand to get used to dark water and temperature.

transition was average and improved from last race. could use some improvement on getting socks and shoes on

use baby powder on towel to dry feet. roll up socks to get on feet.

Transition place: 331

chain fell off on the top of the hill on shifting back up on front gear; computer did not work after first 15 seconds so could not keep track of pace or speed.

wore cut off shirt and tri shorts only; pretty chilly but helped transition

readjust the computer and test before race.

tried just to slip in shoes but ended up being too loose. had to retie anyway

untie shoes before hand;

awful run. cramped up calves right from start; had to stop to stretch a few times; felt like i had to throw up for the whole race

PUKE AND RALLY!

stretch and eat bannans


ate too much; bad food the night before


very early morning start. we set up our transitions in the dark and it was cold; temperature was fine once the race started....but a little chilly. i would do it again. we had a great set up with John and Diane

race bib: 585
came to race: Mom, Dad, Gram, Gramps, Katie, John, Diane
