Milkman Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

I think that I focused a lot on the swim. I swam in the lake the night before to get comfortable with an ow swim. During the race I passed quite a few people. After I rounded the buoy, I think my pace was much better since there were less swimmers close by. I gained more confidence after this.

Don't slow down before passing people.

I didn't realize that I took over 2 minutes in this transition. I guess I had a little trouble getting one of my shoes on.

When I changed to bungee shoe laces before race, I should have put shoes on after changing laces & walk around in them.

This is my best pace for the bike leg in a triathlon. My goal was to get >15mph and I did it. I felt like I was going strong, but I got passed up a lot. (I have lots of room for improvement)

Practice more hills to get stronger and do more speedwork. Try and not get energy gel all over my handlebars.

This transition went by fast.

Bring a hat.

After the first mile and a half the heat started to get to me & I could feel that I was slowing down. At the water stations I would pour water over my head and I could feel myself cool down instantly.

Wear a hat & put an energy gel in the pocket of trisuit to take at beginning of run. Practice more bricks (run after biking) Wear my trail shoes.

Drink a gatorade. Walk around & eventually stretch.


I should have been better prepared to race in the heat and should have taken two energy gels (one at beginning of the bike & one at the beginning of the run) I should definitely wear a hat.


This race was so much fun.
