Pre-race routine:

I had forgotten my cycling shoes, so I had to haul back to UBC to pick them up...what a drag! Luckily I found out early enough and made it for the first swim heat.
Event warmup:

Arm swings and the rush of forgetting my cycling shoes.

  • 01m 13s / 100 meters
Comments:

It was a good swim, I had to actually swim over people to pass them because they were swimming 3/4 accross...trying to pass others. I felt bad but they left me very little choice.
Transition 1
  • 00m 52s
Comments:

I have to work on transition times...I figured I lost about 30-40sec combined in T1 and T2

Comments:

Need to work on it some more! I had a tough time going out but managed to keep the cadence up...most people were mashing the gears, very bad choice! Always keep the cadence high in a TRIathlon. Pick your gears accordingly
What would you do differently?:

Spin a little more.

Needs work.

I loved it, until it emerged from said woods. Again, like last time I need to work on my running if I am to succeed in this sport.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My running and Transition times.

Event comments:

Third Triathlon of my career/life. Work hard and achieve. I am still racing as an Age-grouper because they dont allow me to switch over mid-season but I probably would have come fifth or so as an elite. Give me some time to work on the run and ill be a force to come. Thank you to all the volunteers that made this possible and enjoyable!
