Good swim, took about 300 metres to get into the rhythm and I struggled with the breathing for a while, but I found the stroke after this and the rest was really good.

Try to be less nervous and start out a bit more slowly.

Long transition, 400m from swim exit to bike rack. Found bike ok, wetsuit was off.

Nothing.

Didn't try hard enough on the bike, I cruised along and was overtaken where I shouldn't have been. Trying to 'save' my legs for the run when I should have really pushed through the pain up the hills.

Wind factor very high on the inward leg towards the finish.

Clipless pedals and aero bars. Also dont 'cruise', push through the pain and try for a faster time. I could have done way better.

Good quick transition, but I only had to take helmet off and rack bike as was already wearing running shoes.

Run faster with bike.

Tough run, legs like jelly off the bike, got into the 'rhythm' on the second lap but suffered from serious stitch the whole way.

Not sure. Train for speed more and not endurance as this is only a short distance. More brick sessions.

Massage and stretching.


My right leg seriously hindered my performance as I have not been able to run as I normally would which also affected the bike. Disappointing.


Was a good intro to triathlon and once I can get my leg fixed properly I will enter more.
