swim was as expected, solid but slow, VERY down on swim training this year, so its where i expected it to be and didn't try to push it too much knowing i had a long way to go yet.

Swim time also included approx 400m run to transition.

getting the swimming up in the coming months.

long transition area.

this was by far the hardest race ride i have ever done, the wind was simply insane. by the last 3rd of the ride i was swearing out loud at the wind, my bike, and anything else that came to mind. I hated my bike over the last 10 miles.

slowly started catching people over the last half, it seemed like this was more a matter of who could slow down the least in the wind.



again like with the swim, have been off my bike a lot this year so i knew i would need to be careful with pacing in order to run well later, and the wind only made this harder, but i;m happy with it considering everything.

Mileage needs to come up now, but it was a solid ride.

this was by far my best tri run outside of sprint races. a HUGE long course PR (best run in a half or similar race was 7:25 pace before this), started slower and just picked it up through the race.



nothing.
