Had good position in my wave and never had issue with traffic. Started strong after a lot of practice increaseing my stroke cadence. Started to feel results of fast start about 3/4 way through, but wanted to improve my time from a few weeks ago and kept it going. Yes the weeds on the surface of the lake were annoying and even though I was sighting pretty well, thought at one point I was near the bank west of the course due to weeds everywhere. Improved time by 20 seconds from last race and would like to do the same next time.

Not much. With 2 really good weeks of training between races, this is about how I thought I would improve. Problem with last wave is the glaring sun in your face for right side breathers. I saw sun spots for a good part of the swim! Not much I can do but the obvious and learn to breath on left side better.

Had good pace out of water and pretty easy transition overall. The bike mount line was a bit further out this time and there were people blocking the exit. I just went to the far left side and did leap of faith onto the bike and peddled on top of shoes until away from crowds then got feet strapped in.

Not much here. About 3 seconds slower than last time, but not bad.

I really wanted to knock off about a minute from last race. I had not trained much prior on bike and worked hard on it last few weeks. That said, too soon to expect big changes. I felt pretty good whole way and was able to keep 23-24 mph through the straights. Stilll having problems keeping speen in turns which cost me. Much less lap traffic than last race on course. Only 9 seconds faster this race, need to work on this consistently. One gel about 10 minutes before transition.

Get at least 3 days a week in on the bike and practice going hard in big ring. I have the endurance, but need the strength to hold higher mph.

This was 17 seconds slower than last race and did not notice that much difference? Not like me to have this slow a time. I was not rushed, but didn't feel I took my time. Oh well.

Need to think about areas to save time. Although really thought I did ok.

Felt like I started faster than last race and tried to keep it going. Had doubts I could hold pace, but decided for no regrets. Saw Todd who beat me last race ahead of me out of transition and then after first turn. Knew he would catch up so that was good motivation. At the 2 mile point felt had good legs to sprint in and did. Beat last race time by 18 seconds and it felt much hotter out this time around.

Work on speed. Capable of doing at least 7:15 pace.

No warm down, grabbed water and headed to see a friend who was volunteering. Brought bike and gear to car and back to look at results, grab bite to eat and say hello to Boca Triathlete tent.


Not much, better sleep may have helped. All I was looking for was faster time than last race and did that (although by 28 seconds overall:)


Good race. Happy with 1st in Division (came in 3rd last time), but thinking of doing AG next time for earlier wave start. That might help with the heat on the run and bike motivation to go faster...
