this was the 1st time I have touched my bike in 2 weeks, so it was not tragic considering.
I need to get in some miles and try to get some power on the ups.
What would you do differently?:

train more on bike
Transition 2
  • 00m 37s
Comments:

my shoes got stuck between the pedal and the ground when trying to get into transition, so I had to stop and lift my back wheel.
I also got out of my shoes a little early and had to ride a touch further on top of them.

Got a cramp in my left calf right out of transition, but I ran through it.
Took me close to the mile to get my legs going, but it was a solid run.

Warm down:

jogged for 10 minutes

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I have not trained any in the last 2 weeks due to injury and then lack of motivation from injury.

Event comments:

was well put on and well run. It was far better than the Cary Long Course 2 weeks ago which ironically was put on by an events mgt company and thi swas put on by a magazine.
