Swim
Comments: Wow! since this was my first international or olympic triathlon I didn't know what to expect of the long swim but I was sure surprise that I need a lot of work on the swim. The swim for me was just BAD. What would you do differently?: Stay more calm Transition 1
Comments: Everything went good and I didn't have any issues except the wetsuit getting stuck. Bike
Comments: After having a bad swim I was really looking forward to the bike portion of the race since I've been putting more training on the bike for the last 2 months now. This was my first race with a power meter since I bought it about a month ago so I was really looking forward to this. I wanted to stay within 210 to 220w for the whole race. Not only did I accomplish that but I felt great after getting out of the bike. First time that I have felt fresh going into the run. What would you do differently?: Nothing had a great race and a PR from the 21mph avg from the duathlon I did 2months back. Transition 2
Run
Comments: Had a good run thanks to the pacing on the bike. Didn't know what to expect for the run since I only ran 2 times in the last month or so since I been working a lot on the bike and swim. Started the first mile at 5:35 pace but I told myself to calm down since I didn't have the miles on me to keep that pace for the last 5 miles to go. Eventually I was able to settle down for a 5:45 pace or so. What would you do differently?: I had a good run thanks to the pacing and the powermeter. Couldn't ask for more based on the run training I been doing the last month or so. Post race
Warm down: not much just a quick run. What limited your ability to perform faster: More open water training and a lot of swim practice. Last updated: 2011-03-06 12:00 AM
