Comments:

Nervous at start - 100 bpm, but calmed it to 93 before the gun. Started wide and at the back. Head up 'til halfway along 2nd leg. Suit was magnificent!! Gained a lot of confidence for next race. Swam hard into the beach from last bouy.
What would you do differently?:

Push harder into the crowd. Was way too wide (but deliberatley so.) Cost me a lot of time to go wide around the bouys. [approx 2mins!]
Transition 1
  • 00m
Comments:

First time to take off the full suit. Had to take off watch and timing band to get the wrist and ankles off. Mounted bike before line and had to get off and take two more steps!! (On Course Marshalls instruction!) Put watch back on wrist while riding.
What would you do differently?:

Put watch onto bike before pulling suit off. Open shoes up more.

Felt unmotivated and flat before the start. Strangely depressed and sick(?) afterwards? Felt better after a sleep when got home.
