Boulder Peak Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

I really expected this to go better, then didn't pay enough attention to what I was doing!

Sight better!

I could not, for the life of me, get my wetsuit off my right foot! Ended up having to step on it to pull other leg out and then I tipped my bike over. I think my little head cold had me more uncoordinated than usual! Could have been better.

Balance. More Glide?????

Felt like I rode stronger than last year, but not much I guess.

Hmmm, not sure. I rode well, do have a cheap bike I'd like to upgrade someday :)

Had to squirt some water on my face to get the salt off (burning eyes), put sunscreen on and fix my hair a little, otherwise, it's the best I could do. Transition area was far from both bike in and run out, so would have been longer transition either way.

Washed my face on bike earlier. Carry smaller sunsreen and put on during my walk/jog.

Both feet and my right ankle hurt, as expected. Right foot eventually went numb, and then I could run a little faster.

I can only get one cortisone injection for my feet per year, and I'm saving that up for the Long Course. (In other words, I could have done that, but saving up for the longer race. After I get the right foot and ankle fixed surgically, this should be less of an issue.)

Massage, shower, eat


Getting off course on the swim as much as I did, stupid wetsuit getting stuck on my foot in T1, and can't really run on my ankle.


This is still my favorite triathlon of those I've done.
