If you stop training in the pool, you can expect your swim to suffer a little.

What would you do differently?:

Train more.

Transition 1

01m 52s

Comments:

It's hard to move fast when it's cold and your hands don't function properly. Still a decent transition for me.

Bike

36m 31s
12.5 miles
20.54 mile/hr

Comments:

On such a short course, I really expected to avg 22 or something. I should have previewed the course more. Mostly hills with several turns slowed me down quite a bit.

Transition 2

00m 42s

Comments:

T2 sorta snuck up on me so I had to hurry to get out of my shoes. I did ok and got to the rack without incident.

Run

17m 36s
2 miles
08m 48s min/mile

Comments:

I haven't been running either really but just wanted to go under 20min. It was hilly and I hurt for most of the run but felt I did pretty good nonetheless.

Post race

Warm down:

Grabbed a snack and waited for others to finish.

Event comments:

Good quick race to finish off the season.
