First tri, not a strong swimmer. Just took it at my own pace. Was tired by the last 100M. Finished pretty strong in my opinion. Had set a time to be out of the water by 25:00. Was very pleased to be out in under 17:00. Especially for having NO swimming history. Jst hope it wasn't luck!

Keep calm.

I think it was nerves, but it took me 2 trys to get clipped into my pedals. Oh well, there's next time.



Shirt got rolled up in back, and I fooled with it for about 20 seconds too long. Next time, I'll just take off and worry about the shirt down the road.

Need to practice off the bike path and onto actual roads more for next training segment. I seemed to do oaky, as I wasn't too spent for the run.


Drink more fluids. I had 1 bottle of Gatorade and 1 bottle of water. I only drank maybe 30% of each.

Had a pretty solid T2 IMO. Not sure what really good is though. Started cramping in my calves during the first 500 yards. Had never done that during previous brick trainings. Now I know race pace, I can train more efficiently.

Nothing much.

First 500 yards, had cramping calves. Kept a steady tempo despite cramps. Need to run during training more often. Took my running history for granted, and shoud have incorporated more bricks.

Higher tempo.

Light stretching and walking. Lots of water and gatorade. 2 banannas and half of a hamburger.


First time nerves, wasn't sure how far I could push myself. Just wanted to finish my first one.


HFP seems to put on great races based on the 2 I've spectated and the one I've participated in.
