Event warmup:

no warm up just some stuff to loosen up the shoulders and prepare for swim.

Comments:

I was concerned about putting down 7:07 as my estimated time but I think I could have hit that today if I wouldn't have got hung up behind a slower swimmer who was swimming down the middle of the lane which made it difficult to get around him. This is the very first time I have swam and was caught by surprise by the end of the course. In my mind I thought I had at 100 more meters to go. That's a nice feeling except for wondering if I left some time out there.

Longish run from pool to transition.

Comments:

This was the first time I ever felt like I could actually hold back a bit to save something for the run. I'll never know if I got back the time on the run but I'm happy with my effort.
Transition 2
  • 01m 3s
Comments:

I can improve this if my feet will toughen up enough to allow me to run sockless. I plan to work on this over the off season.
