first 1000m where very crowded.
visibility was nihil.
Was prepared for a tough start with a mass start in the water but the crowd lasted much longer than expected.

Swim more agressivly through the mass and fight for my position in the water. I was too passive and cought by suprise.

fix shoes on bike and go barefoot out of T1. Not to gain time with putting shoes on, but running appr 200m to the T1 exit with bike shoes is not optimal.

Pacing went well. The last 20km against the wind where tough...
Nutrition went wel:
Lost almost all the Gatorade on the rail road crossings and cobble stones...
1 power Gel every 20 minutes.
total of 4 water bottle and appr. one Gatorade

train more on the bike. More endurance and strength needed...

went fine.

Get feet out of shoes before dismount and run barefoot to bike raking

Hot. And overheated!!!
Nutrition: 1 power Gel per lap (5km) for the first 3. On the last lap I skipped it.
Drank enough I think.

Couldn´t doo much to keep cooler. There was not enought cooling provided by the organisation.
Maybe going out a little slower would have been overall more efficient?

none. felt very bad for over 1/2 an hour after the race. Probably overheating.


Run: The heat.
Lack of bike speed.


Not enough aid stations. Especially for te run, more cold water to cool down was needed.
