I thought I started my Polar w
My first wading start. Got bashed around for the first 300M. too many people to seperate myself.


What would you do differently?:

Overall, I was pretty happy with 17 mins. It's a good improvement from the last tri. Just need to sperate myself earlier to get into a good rhythm.

I got a bit dizzy coming out of the water, as I usually do, didn't want to kill myself so took my time.

Comments:

I was a bit miffed here. I didn't get my watch started until I started my run and my Polar clocked a 28'30" run time, but I guess the official timer thought differently. Not sure why such the discrepancy... I even marked my pace every KM and it was certainly well below 6min/km.. oh well, it was a fun run anyways :).
What would you do differently?:

Try to ensure my watch is in sync with the official timer.

Warm down:

drank tons of water and isotonics. It was pretty hot outside. Found the massage booth to get my legs rubbed down.
