![]() Swim
Comments: This was my first olympic and second tri prior to a 16 year absence. Swimming is my strongest leg, so I actually did very little training. I took slow easy strokes to save energy for the bike. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Had a really hard time getting my singlet on. What would you do differently?: Different singlet. ![]() Bike
Comments: I ran a sprint last year and was passed by over 200 people! I had one of the slowest times on the course at a 15.1 mph avg. So, I bought a road bike this year and so far, have only focused on a solid base, no speedwork. So... I am stoked, excited, elated, ecstatic, you name it with this ride. Though I was 100th, the top bike was like 1:00:00. I was only 18 minutes behind! What would you do differently?: Speedwork ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Right shoe too tight and had to stop to loosen it. What would you do differently?: Get those speed lace things. ![]() Run
Comments: Humidity was 88% and temp 80 F. It was crazy hot. I decided after first 10 minutes that I'd run-walk. The temp was like a 15 degree jump over the past two weeks and I hadn't done much running for this event. What would you do differently?: I didn't plan to do much with the run here... I was really focusing on the bike and it worked out (which it did) I'll do some speedwork for my next sprint. ![]() Post race
Warm down: None What limited your ability to perform faster: Heat Event comments: Post-race food was in a field house that seemed to be airconditioned! There was lots of pasta, bananas, red beans and rice, oranges, bagels, bagels w/ peanut butter. Post-race was really good!
