thanks for posting your race report! Looks like you had a great race! you should give us a summary of your race though; I would love to hear about it. I just got back from the Chicago Triathlon. (I did the international distance though...what a killer!!!)

KUDOS!

Awesome race on Sunday and congrats on the age group placing and qualifying for Nationals!

oopps, sorry

I signed up for the sprint in order to start at 6:50. Which came pretty quick. I jockeyed in front for the swim and I hung in there with 6 other guys. As usual I forgot to pace and ran out of breath after 300 meters, but I gained composure and stood on the tail of the fast 6. Learned from last year to have a pair of slippers out of the water, that helped. Took off shorty wetsuit and off with my bike. Jumped on and rode with my feet on top of shoes. Next year I will focus on cycling since this is now my weak area. I gained a little speed from last year but still need work. Some cyclist past me up but not many. Hammered hard like instructed by coach and kept a 90 cadence. Run was awesome with overcast helping. I forgot my gel but I remembered they would hand some out around mile 1. So I grab a few different flavors.
My coach said run hard and redline, make it feel like you are gonna throw up. It was FUN!
