What would you do differently?:

EVERYTHING - Not ENOUGH time in the pool!!! Must seriously commit to the discipline of improving my swimming abilities!

Need to invest in the clipless shoe pedals - can dramtically improve my time with those

Felt like this was one of my better rides - still lots of room for improvement though

Comments:

Felt like a quick turnaround - may be able to shave a few more seconds off
Run
  • 55m 21s
  • 6.2 miles
  • 08m 56s  min/mile
Comments:

Bands on exterior / interior of the knee felt like they were going to "snap" - must run longer distances to reduce fatigue and possibility of injury.

Should have been able to go faster - much faster!
What would you do differently?:

Didn't get passed by a whole lot of people on the run but that's probably because I was so far out of the race. ALOT of room for improvement!
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Wasn't prepared either mentally or physically for this event. Didn't respect the discipline of triathlons. SERIOUSLY underestimated the drain on the body's resources. Simply being able to run marathons does NOT get you into shape to run triathlons!!!

Event comments:

Placed 157th out of 178 finishers
