Pre-race routine:

This was our First Triathalon so we were just figuring out where to go and how to set up our transitions. I was pretty nervous seeing all the other athletes that looked like professionals
Event warmup:

A little swim because everyone else was doing it.

As I said before this was my first triathalon so I was just thankful to get thru the swim without getting kicked. My biggest fear was sharks and my second biggest fear was getting kicked in the nose and breaking my nose. Over all I felt pretty good about my swim.
Transition 1
  • 03m 39s
Comments:

It was a pretty long run from the beach to the T1 so I think that is why my time is so long. But I think i did pretty well. I don't have bike shoes yet so had to put on my sneakers.

I did this on my hybrid bike and felt pretty good but it was hard having what seemed like everyone pass me on the bike. Can't wait until I get my new bike.
What would you do differently?:

Get a race bike!
