Have not been in the pool as much as i would have liked lately and sick the past week or so but was overall pretty happy with this. Swimming through previous waves was tough as they were spread out everywhere.
What would you do differently?:

Swim more

Comments:

Pretty slow transition time. decided to put shoes on and then clip in and that probably cost me a little time.

Comments:

happy with this as my goal was to push it hard on the bike and see what I had left for the run.
Transition 2
  • 01m 10s
Comments:

Well, this time was terrible. I love my Brooks Green Silence but I definitely had some issues getting them on. The tongue got bunched up so i had to take my time to get them set straight before taking off.
What would you do differently?:

Have to decide on keeping these as race shoes or not. the odd tongue makes it tough to slip on and go even with xtenex laces.
