Felt good but started to fast and then it seemed long and probably got relaxed in rythem for 1/3 of total swim. No battle water clear ...I need to improve my swim BAD

Get faster and really look at starting more progressive. Slower start and then start getting into rythem and control breathing. It seems everyone was stroking deeper and harder than I noticed as people passed me and I tried to catch them. After last bouy though I started to feel as though I had something left in me others did not as I started passing some.

84% avg but this was a ironman like transition as you departed water you grabbed a bag and continued to a tent and changed there and placed all back into bag and then found bike and put on glasses and helmet and departed T1. I put race belt on and had 2 zip containers with thermolyte and then sportlegs in the shirt. 34th overall in transition time so not bad. Powdered shoes really well and wore no socks which was not a problem.

Instead of not seated I would had used a seat to change.

Great ride except for crash though only 2 passed me and I got them with in 3 miles. Like always all down hills past many as bike is just so good down hill. last 10 mikes 9% downgrade though direct head wind which kept @ 34 MPH it could have been dangerous if no wind or tail wind.

NOT CRASH

DIfferent transition as they take bike and rack it for you and hand you your transition bike, I actually changed into running shorts I think this was great and also had my hydration belt which kept my pace. the high time due to awaiting medics to irrigate and dress avulsion. 63% HR

NOT CRASH

see above

get rid of shit in my pockets not alot but bugged me. maybe change shirts but with dressing it would have been a hassel. Top (umph) though soaked never was an issue.

right to hospital for stiches so not even stretching.


crash


Very well put on and great free eats afterwards (Mexican) the bike course was rough just with the wind on the 10 mile mesa rise.
