  • 1640 yards
  • 02m 31s / 100 yards
Comments:

Swam poorly as expected with the lack of adequate swim training this season. No swim workouts at all since IMLP. Start was ok, but once my wave dropped me, things went from bad to worse. Got off course a few times, was out past the Kayakers at some point on the return. I must have swam (poorly) closer to a HIM swim - poor sighting skills and poor visibility out of the googles.
Transition 1
  • 04m 17s
Comments:

Took some time to re-group following the slow swim, even went to the bathroom at T1 to set up for a better rest of the day. The rest of the transition went ok, not fast, but comfortable and efficient.
Bike
  • 1h 11m 35s
  • 24.85 miles
  • 20.83 mile/hr
Comments:

Really have to learn to swim, being behind at the start of the bike sucks. Couldn't get into aero consistently because I was worried about passing people safely. Had a fun ride through the bike path and throughout most of it. Average Power was about 30W lower than expected, but NP and HR were right on. I just wasn't riding efficiently.
Transition 2
  • 02m 1s
Comments:

A little disappointed in this time - way too long to put on shoes, also need to get comfortable without socks at this distance.

Run
  • 47m 20s
  • 6.21 miles
  • 07m 37s  min/mile
Comments:

The one leg I'm kinda proud of today. Though I wasn't that fast, I feel I executed the run very well. I started off comfortable and picked up the pace through the entire run and held on very well. Was satisfied that I was able to run the entire leg given may recent performances (a little biased since those were longer events). Probably ran to the best of my ability at this point.
