  • Comments: I'm VERY happy with these results. This race last year was my first triathlon. I was able to shave of 8:42 from last year's time and improve on ALL of my splits. I have nothing to complain about, but would like to improve on some small things to squeeze some extra seconds out of them. It was great seeing fellow Team Donkey members out there racing too. That just makes it so much more fun! Excellent race overall!!

  • Comments: HR data: yeah, I forgot my HRM only saves one event worth of segment data so I don't have the breakdown. Avg hr was 183, max 196. For comparison sake, here's the breakdown from last year: S: 8:37 T1: 1:55 B: 40:17 T2: 1:17 R: 25:18 Total: 1:17:21 I went faster in all five segments this year compared to last, and went below my goal time for all five segments. What could be better than that??? So satisfying to have the training pay off. Thanks to Coach Mark for pushing me (even though it is aimed at IM and not this sprint stuff!). This race was a blast. Also met some new BT'ers, TripletMom01, ScoobysDad, and Analog_Girly. Definately got my race fix, which is good as next weekend's Oly at Elkhart Lake is not going to be full effort.

  • Comments: I got out of this race what I wanted-- a good brick workout and the chance to rebuild confidence in my run off the bike. I believe this may be my PR for a sprint, but it was a shorter course (only 15mi. bike) and a fast one, too. My swim blew big chunks. Still, I successfully dealt with the elements and had a chance to meet and hang out with a few BT'ers after the race. It was great to finally put some faces with all those usernames! Great to meet you/see you again Morey1, PeterAk, Pseudoyams and jszat!
