Run
Comments: This first segment I was punished for 2 mistakes I've done: 1.I felt bad of my stomach during the second lap because I ate too late 2.Started way too fast (8:30) in the first lap... should aim to 9:15 or something like that Even so, the final time still is a good time. But I felt I could do better What would you do differently?: Lunch earlier Start slower (it's becoming a bad habbit) Transition 1
Comments: I never practice transitions but I've been improving this from race to race Bike
Comments: During the first lap I was still recovering from the run and my stomach was slowly improving condition. I've done the second lap much faster and felt much better then. The road was open to traffic and even if there wasn't many cars I had to brake 2 or 3 times do to some cars that were on the way. Seemed that the Police wasn't even trying to control the traffic. What would you do differently?: Nothing Transition 2
Comments: My fastest transition ever Run
Comments: Felt very good and I even sprinted to pass another athlete just over the finish line Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: There was 3 major reasons: 1. Lunch too late 2. Started too fast 3. Traffic during the cycling segment Event comments: I won't do this race again. Only 65 athletes. Traffic on the cycling segment. Not even a T-shirt at the end Last updated: 2005-05-23 12:00 AM

We arrived to the town 3 hours before the race and went to lunch finishing around 2 hours before the event. Lesson learned: never try that again, lunch must be at least 3 hours before
10mins jog followed by some gymnastics and easy stretching
