Swim
Comments: Well, I realized after 3/4 of the swim I wasn't catching the water. I was all arms, well one arm any way. I also noticed I wasn't even turning my left hip probably the reason I've been going right all the time. It made me realize it's exactly what I did last week and at my first give-it-a-tri. I guess the catch is not second nature yet. What would you do differently?: Need more practice Transition 1
Comments: Lost my bike, turned in wrong row. trouble getting shirt down. What would you do differently?: remember where I put it. Bike
Comments: Had good ride. Unfortunately I was being passed a lot so I had to stay on the rough stuff for most of ride, not fun. I kept good pace, worked th hills very well. I was not sure what kind of pace I was going to have because of the unknown hills, so aimed for 17mph average. I scored an 18.1, so am very happy. What would you do differently?: Need more work, work, work. Transition 2
Comments: Lost my rack again. Run
Comments: Good run, controlled cramps before they became to painfull. Good easy start and gradualy increased passed. Once I got to good pace I started the mental battle. I started repeating a stupid verse from song I don't even know the words, and this helped me keep my pace and fight through the pain thoughts. It worked. (I read this from the triathlete mag August issue) I was aiming for 8 minute pace and got 7:49 average. Very happy. What would you do differently?: Try a faster pace Post race
Warm down: Walked around got some food and get out of wet clothes. What limited your ability to perform faster: Consistency in training. Last updated: 2010-03-08 12:00 AM
