 Swim
Comments: I was disappointed coming out of the water. I thought I had swam well but was expecting a good 45 seconds faster. Oh well. Not hitting arms, no running over people. Very pleasant swim. Maybe I was enjoying too much :-) What would you do differently?: Not much. I did swim straight and relaxed. I guess the pace was a little off  Transition 1
Comments: Bad T1. I had trouble getting the wetsuit off at the elbows of all places. WTF was that ?. Between the bad swim and bad T1, I was ready to just coast the rest. Glad I didn't. What would you do differently?: Not much. I should know how to do this by now  Bike
Comments: I was happy with the bike. Hit my watts target. After first lap I saw it was going well, so I pushed. What would you do differently?: Not much Transition 2
Comments: Good T2, went smooth What would you do differently?: Nothing  Run
Comments: I started off fast. First k was 4:10. I backed off a little, which was stupid. Second k 4;22. started feeling good at 3km so picked it up 4:14, 4:18 for the next two. I saw I wasn't too far behind a guy that usually wins my AG, I figured I had a podium shot, looked back and decided to push, but I was toast. 4:10 pace for the last K, which was short (did it in 3:45). What would you do differently?: nothing, maybe not back off 2nd km. That was wimpy. I don't like pain.... Post race
Warm down: nothing special. I looked at the results, realized I had podiumed (2nd), so was happy I was especially happy I beat all the guys that normally beat me. Except 1. What limited your ability to perform faster: nothing Event comments: Good event, but the 'pick up your medal at the counter' sucks. Last updated: 2010-08-22 12:00 AM

Veteran 307 Montréal | Subject: RE: Triathlon Valleyfield Good job Marc!! Ramener une course qui s'en va nulle part sur la bonne track c'est quand même assez satisfaisant hein? Ça doit être pas mal plus tough de finir top 3 de groupe d'âge en Coupe du Québec Sprint qu'en duathlon! Oui je t'ai entendu et c'était bien apprécié. J'ai fait le saut un peu, je ne suis pas habitué d'avoir des fans! He he |

This was the last Quebec cup event. Last chance to get some points. I was ranked 5th overall going in. This was last chance to pull that up. I will have to wait for the final results, but I did improve my rank. I might have podiumed for the season/series. Yipee.
Nothing special. Got there early. Only had 1 extra large coffee this time
I cheered etccallhome82 in the duathlon. Not sure he heard me. He was running well.
Did one loop on the bike course (5km) and a bit of jogging. Felt crap on the warm up.
