What would you do differently?: I need to do lots more poolwork! The first 4 people out of the water automatically had a 2-minute lead on me. I passed two of them later on, but the two others ended up beating me by 1 and 17 seconds...if only I could've had a faster transition! Transition 1
Comments: This was a tough transition because you come out of the water a good 800-1000 meters away from the transition area. So you have to overcome the wobbly legs, put on your running shoes, run uphill (remember you're starting at lakefront), and then get to do your transition. What would you do differently?: Need to set up things differently so that they're in the order I need them. I could have used a crate to prop up my bike and carry all my gear in. Bike
What would you do differently?: Went out a little too hard on this and paid for it on the run. Transition 2
Comments: Fast transition. I was very happy with it. Run
What would you do differently?: Don't use all the water stations, or at least don't drink all the water. Post race
Warm down: Walked around and stretched extensively Event comments: This is an awesome local race for a first tri. This was my first shot at one, and I'm pumped for my next one, which will be a true sprint distance. Last updated: 2004-08-21 12:00 AM
