Subject: 2nd Sprint need some feedback from the vets
Finished my second sprint yesterday.  Was a little disappointed in my improvement from my first sprint.  I improved, but not as much as I had hoped.  Below are the links to my race reports if you're so inclined, take a look at my training log....

Both races were at the same location but the swim and run distances were a bit shorter this time (Swim was 500 vs 800 yds, Run was 5K vs 4mi).  Bike was the exact same.

Any words of wisdom from some of you veterans?    I have another sprint about the same distance at the end of September. 

First race June 21:

just to state the obvious, those are only about a month apart, you wont see HUGE gains in that amount of time.

Didn't read the race reports, but your logs show you swam 3400 yards, biked 117 miles, and ran 28.86 mile in the six weeks in between the races. Not sure how much improvement one can expect on those low training volumes.
