This is the first time I've used auto lap at 200 meters on Garmin and the data is prety interesting. looking at the splits might have started to fast, 2nd split slow because I found myself behind three slower swimmers and didn't feel like putting out the extra effort to get around them. Last two splits were my normal pace.

Start slower to get warmed up then start pushing it in the 2nd half. I still suck at swimming so just need to keep working on form.

Other then being slowed down by getting stuck behind others running from swim exit to transition area no issues

Nothing,

Since left hamstring had been bothering me last few days I decided I should push the bike hard since I wasn't going to be able to run hard. Was able to run my HR higher then normal so for once was not nearly as limited by functional strength as past races. Fastest speed yet for me in a race. Also no issues getting in and out of shoes this time which helped a lot.

Nothing

dilly dallied a little getting shoe on but compared to other T2 times in AG I was happy.

hamstrings were not bad, glad I warmed up, but legs were pretty heavy,air was thick so breathing not as easy. Took about .5 mile to get legs going then could not get HR up to 165 area because of heavy legs. Just ran a 20:02 standalone 5K 3 days earlier in 105 degrees so a little disappointed in the run but considering how hard I pushed the bike it should be expected.

Nothing

watermelon, barbeque chicken, and lots of beer.


sore legs


The best Sprint I have ever participated in. Great competition, lot's of SWAG, very organized, lots of volunteers, great location, great post race party. Only issue was with the auto traffic on the bike course.
