New Brighton, Minnesota
United States
Frontrunner
70F / 21C
Sunny

Total Time = 1h 10m 54s
Overall Rank = 7/362
Age Group = 25-29
Age Group Rank = 2/37

Pre-race routine:

Drank my usual shake ate a banana. Headed to the park. Transition filled pretty early which was surprising. Saw a handful of us BTers and some friends from masters.

Event warmup:

Biked a bit and ran a mile or so. Forgot to eat my caffinated gu and I'm almost always caffinated so I kinda wondered if this had an effect on my run performance later on.

Swim

13m 31s
880 yards
01m 32s / 100 yards

Comments:

Swim was definitely a bit long. If I had to guess a # I'd say 50yards or so. My 1k cruse interval in pool was 1'26" a couple weeks ago and I'm pretty good pacing off of my feel now.

I put a strong effort into the swim and was actually a bit disappointed to have not done better in the overall.

Transition 1

00m 53s

Comments:

Transition was good. Got disoriented coming into the T area and couldn't remember which column I was in.

Bike

36m 36s
14 miles
22.95 mile/hr

Comments:

Felt pretty good on this ride. Held approximately to the wattage that I intended to.

Transition 2

00m 33s

Comments:

Solid error free t2.

Run

19m 22s
3 miles
06m 28s min/mile

Comments:

Really wanted to be faster but couldn't push to get my HR higher and the pace faster. Somewhat weak mental effort but it's hard when you aren't in striking distance of someone to chase...
