  • 1500 meters
  • 1h 56m 20s / 100 meters
Comments:

it's an interesting swim in this artificial river (like a huge pool), no buoys, just a straight 1500m swim. It is a bit winding so you do have to navigate in order not to crash into a wall.
What would you do differently?:

pick up the pace for the second half of the swim. I think I restrained myself a bit too much.
Transition 1
  • 03m 10s
What would you do differently?:

I drank some water while in transition, should've started and then drink while on the bike.

had to use a towel and wipe all the mud from my legs and superficially clean my glasses.

run very slow due to a knee surgery 6 months ago, I think it was quite good for the circumstances, it didn't hurt so I was able to finish.
