Pre-race routine:

Woke up 4am, showered & had a bowl of cereal. Drove to La Porte from Houston, took about 30mins and arrived by 5.30am. Racked the bike and have my transition setup. Stretched and relax. Feel good, just a little tummy discomfort. Get a bit humid later.

From my first experience back in April, I decided to take my time. I just walked out of the water and to the T1 just to have my bearing and take my breath and gather my energy before the bike.

Running is my weakess sport. I really struggled a little and decided to stop and walk few times especially at the water stations. Dehydrate and recharged my energy.

Lots of long distance and endurance training!
