Goggles fogged up, terrible could not sight properly and what should have been a lovely swim turned into a sighting nightmare


buy anti fogging spray

I feel I took too long and had too much stuff to fiddle with, also put on socks and forgot to take my cleats off

plan better

First 40 miles Avr speed 21.4mph
next 8M this dropped to 21 mph
last 8M very windy, dropped to 20.6 MPH
The flatness of the course is a killer, after mile 40 I started to hace severe pain in my hips, had to stand and sit up to ride

Some people train on a trainer for this race -NO WAY

Despite excellent marking in the transition zone I ran to the wrong isle and missed my bike spot

be very careful when you pre walk the transition zone as the day off and pre race access points may be different to the race access points

temp was around 90F way too hot heat index was over 100F
The organizers did an amazing job at the aid stations, plenty of ice and cold drink. Walked a fair bit and walked through every aid station. Pace was way off

Nothing it was too hot

took a shower and the fire truck, cycled back to the parking 2.5M?
Should have stretched


The heat


very well organized!
