Pre-race routine:

Nada. Stood on the shore with Kevin Wright and LC and watched as the racers started in a 3 at a time time trial start. Had a delay b/c the lead safety guy wasn't there.
Event warmup:

No warm up.

Comments:

I felt I swam harder than my time shows. Not sure if I was slow to get out to the first buoy (had to walk or dolphin b/c of how shallow the water is) or if the course was long, but I felt like I pushed it the entire time.

Went hard for the entire ride. The climb to the cabins was tough to hammer, but tried to keep the pedal down the entire way.
Transition 2
  • 00m 50s
Comments:

Didn't wear socks so I slipped on my Zoot running shoes and was off.
Run

Comments:

LC passed me on the climb of the bike and I kept her in my sights. I think we linked up in T2 (can't really recall) and ran together. I could hear her behind me which was a nice push. Couldn't have run any harder.
Post race
Warm down:

Hung out in the tent for a little with the team before cleaning our stuff up and riding up the hill to the cabin.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of speedwork maybe?

Event comments:

Just the appetizer race for the weekend. This was the only race I went all out in. Every other race was easy effort on purpose.

Cotswold super sprint - UK. Lots of bodies colliding, I swam half over someone, got kicked by some bloody breaststroker, and as a mob we poured towards the first buoy.

I'm not quite half way into my IM training. I just raced a sprint and on Monday I woke up and felt like I'd been drugged! Not sore, just incredibly fatigued.

Already a cyclist and not a bad swimmer, I figured all I had to do was build up to running a few miles and I’d be ready to go. The challenge invigorated me, and I ran out to buy new running shoes.

If you haven’t done any bricks yet, this isn’t the time to start piling them on, but here are some examples you could do in the lead up to your race.

Since I didn't have much time and since it's a super sprint, am I OK just go to at the training relatively hard through Thursday or even Friday?
