Racing for Recovery Triathlon - Half Ironman - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

Really never got into a great rhythm, didn't catch any draft

try harder to get into a rhythm, worry a little less about the draft

I start with my shoes on already, too klutzy to put them on on the bike, wet suit only stuck on the foot with the chip so no too bad

remember the chip!

Really didn't have any problems, just felt like I was working a lot harder than I expected.

No answer

someone else's wetsuit was covering up my stuff which had me thrown for a bit but overall I was pretty happy with T2.

run was ok until the last couple of miles, I was really working to maintain, pretty shaky at the finish

Had some gastro problems that kept me from getting proper hydration/nutrition, try harder to make that happen regardless of "upset stomach"

walked around, hydrated, took salt tabs, nutrition


inability to get enough nutrition/hydration


My results were great but inside it was a mental and physical struggle just about the whole way, but it didn't kill me so I'm stronger now, haha.
