Not a lot as I got to the event with enough time to get my pack, set up my transition area, get my chip and get to the edge of the pool with about 1min to spare!

Comments:

Was a little unlucky that my wave started just as the 2 other guys in my lane were turning around, so I had to wait a couple of seconds before I could go.
Completed the 400m in 7:58 (official time includes getting out of the pool and about halfway to T1) which is PB!
What would you do differently?:

Not a lot really
Transition 1
  • 01m 23s
Comments:

Had to stop at the end of transition as a car was coming meaning I couldn't jump onto the bike
What would you do differently?:

Nothing as this was the quickest T1 time I have managed

Finally managed to overcome the big hill without any issues
What would you do differently?:

Get out and practice hills more
Transition 2
  • 00m 50s
Comments:

Missed my rack spot again! Thankfully by only 3 spots before I noticed. Also took my feet out of my shoes too early as I thought I was closer to transition
What would you do differently?:

Pay more attention to rack spot!

Thought I set a PB for 5k only to discover that the course it just short enough to failed by a few seconds. It is, however, the first race I've keep under 8min/mile

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Seems I still need to work on my running as it's the event that I seem to place worst in.
