 Swim
Comments: I started getting a cramp in my side so I slowed down. I did try to draft I think it would be eaiser if i could see more tham 6 inches. Entry and exit were very rocky and hard on the feet What would you do differently?: Need more swimming time  Transition 1
Comments: Long run to transition What would you do differently?: I need a bucket to put everything in so it can stay dry during rain.  Bike
Comments: I had some problums with the hills but not too bad there had to be 15 people with flat tires I do not know why I did not see any wire or glass on the road. What would you do differently?: Need some hill work Transition 2
Comments: dismount was right on the edge of the road and wet grass so no jumping off or running. What would you do differently?: Back to the dry thing.  Run
Comments: Seemed like the longest 5k i have ever done no more than 100 yards of flat ground at any one time Up down turn over and over. also very hard to determine where you are on the course. Ran the forst 2 miles then started walking the up hills. What would you do differently?: Hill work Post race
Warm down: none What limited your ability to perform faster: Lack of hill training Last updated: 2006-09-17 12:00 AM

Extreme Veteran 349 Allen | Subject: RE: Burnet TRI hard challange Great job Cliff!! 2mph improvement on the bike, and amost two minutes per mile on what sounds like a much more difficult run course than Jefferson. Very impressive - you should be proud of yourself! |
