Tri for Life - TriathlonSprint

Passed two people who put in too slow of times about 100-150 meters into the race then there was nobody in sight to draft off of. Took it real easy like I always do. A little slower than last year but took it a lot eaier than I used to. No point in wasting effort on a short swim when you have a tough bike ahead.

One of my fastest ever. Getting better as I do more races.

Started out pretty hard but held back for most of the way as I ended up behind a guy that was about the same pace as me. I could have overtaken him near the end but figured it wasn't worth the effort. Two guys blew by me which was a little deflating but they finished in the top 3.

Should have pushed it a little harder on the way back but I held back on purpose so that I could actually feel my legs on the run for the first time ever.

A little slower than I thought. T1 was actually faster somehow. Oh well. Not too bad.

Felt great. Took the uphill first half a little easy and tried to push the downhill a little more. Felt like my best 5k ever, but ended up being pretty normal. On of my better runs and by far the most comfortable 5k's, but probably could have pushed harder, just didn't know until after the race.

Don't hold back and push myself til I explode like normal.

Not much. Probably could have pushed a little harder but didnt' know until the race was over.


I really enjoy this race. It was the first triathlon I ever did so my wife and I come back to it every year. It is small but there are a couple guys that are just really fast (and they are mostly in my age group). Great first race or early season warm up.
