Subject: RE: CapTex Tri thread This race was extremely fun from start to finish, but it was a weak performance from start to finish =P this whole month just backfired on me--don't know why I could ever possibly have expected to go faster than I did. this is why:
4/21 Half Ironman - new orleans
4/29-5/9 Finals at college
5/5 The Rookie Triathlon
5/18 Spartan Race
5/27 CapTex Tri
Very little rest and very few quality training sessions. Just couldn't generate any power at all on the course. It was good considering the condition I was in but I just fell apart on the run. In mint condition with a proper taper and buildup, a 2:15 might actually be very plausible. Definitely worth every penny, though!! Time to take it easy for a week then resume running and some light swimming until R-day
Finish time: 2:25:59
How'd the rest of you do? Edited by odpaul7 2013-05-28 5:29 PM
