Tejas Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

The swim was in a clean pond. Can't complain too much about the contition of the water. It was warm, clean, wave-less. Great conditions. I felt this was my roughest event.

I would have liked to have more swimming done before the tri. Part of the problem was the move to San Antonio and not being able to find a lap pool that didn't cost an arm and a leg until about a week and a half before the race.

I need to get this faster. There have got to be some tricks that I just don't know yet or I just need more practice at it.

GO FASTER!!!!

I thought this was pretty good. The entire bike portion was on a pretty flat course. A couple really small hills but that was it. The only wet parts were where the sprinkler system was turned on before the race. This was also the first time I've done a USAT sanctioned event. I got yelled at for being too close. I thought I was fine but apparently I was wrong.

Go faster and not get yelled at.

I'm pretty pleased with this transition. It's a lot easier to take off a helmet, change shoes, and drink some water than it is to try to get dressed for the bike.

Pretty good pace I think for this triathlon. A few places felt really tough, but that eventually passed and I was able to speed up again.

Try to run faster.

walked around, drank water, ate some fruit, and then got a massage.


I did a Biathlon the day before. It didn't feel like that had any sort of noticable affect on my tri. It may have caused me to move a little slower, but I didn't notice.


I thought this was a good triathlon. I was shooting for 1:15:00, and finished 3 minutes under that. If anything I would like to do my next triathlon with someone I know, or have someone present as a spectator. Driving to Houston, running the triathlon and then coming back alone kinda sucked.
