Willow Duathlon - Duathlon

I went out hard to break the 25 minute barrier. I was at mile 1 in 7:20 but couldn't keep it up and faded a bit.

Be able to run the whole 5k at 7:20 pace. That needs some work.

Transition was decent, about the same as last year. I didn't bust myself on it though. It took some extra time to put on an a warm shirt and gloves.

Not much. What I did went smootholy, I just could have hustled a bit more.

Oakwoods Park roads suck. Bumping and banging all the way. Strong headwind all the way back on the loop. Felt like I was barely moving against the wind. My hamstrings were burning and it was so bumpy, i didn't want to go into the aero position.

I took the bike pace very easy because of how bumpy it was. I could have pushed it a lot more. I was suprised my time was as good as it was considering the pace and the headwind on the way back.

This was a good transition. I beat several people out that were in there before me, still I did not hustle.

I could have been under a minute if I was trying. Also had to get rid of pants and long shirt from the cold bike ride, so that added time.

My legs felt better on this run than they did before the bike. This time was a little slower than I thought it was, but it was still ok.

Find a way to get that time down, that's it.

Training was limited to go along with a hectic school schedule this winter. Really only got two good weeks of training in for this event


The bumpy bike course in Oakwoods park limited my enjoyment of this event, still I like it overall
