my first mass start,over all I'm really happy with the swim i think i could of done better but was conservative as i was so nervous of not being able to complete the distance even tho Ive swam further in a pool.

make sure i was on the outside of the turns that way i would of had clearer water

you had to remove wetsuit and put it in a bag before you went up the stairs into trans area. well i went down the wrong isle but managed to duck under the rail to get to my bike, once i got to my stuff it went well i have spd's so i can run in my bike shoes so mounting wasn't to bad

practice, practice, practice oh and try not to get lost (tho the excel center is huge)

even tho i had a good average speed in my minds eye i should have done better wanted to do it in 35mins or quicker

went ok tbh again with practice it will get better

wasnt as good as it could of been but ok

need to work on my discipline and focus when running

a few bad choices but i will take them as a learning tool and do better next time.


was my first big event and i had a blast. will do at least 1 big event per year i think just for the buzz of larger crowd and so on.
