Swim
Comments: Had a really great swim, got into a good rhythm early and kept it going. Strongest swim I've had during a race. What would you do differently?: Still need more speed, which will come with more hard sessions in the pool. Transition 1
Comments: Good transition, went pretty smooth. What would you do differently?: Just work on speeding it up. Bike
Comments: The bike leg killed me. Once again it was the hills and I just struggled the whole way around the course. What would you do differently?: Really need to be training on the course and riding a lot more hills. Transition 2
Comments: T2 went pretty smooth, bike racked, helmet off, bike shoes off, runners on, cap on whilst running out of transition. What would you do differently?: Again just practice getting the transition faster. Run
Comments: Struggled to get into a good rhythm over the first couple of laps, by lap 3 I was doing better. Last lap was fastest, made up a bit of ground. What would you do differently?: This was the best run I've done in a race but I am still really slow. Need to do more fartlek and interval work to get my pace up. Post race
Warm down: Light stretch. What limited your ability to perform faster: Fitness on the hills, the bike course really took its toll. Event comments: This is my third triathlon and was at my club. All of the members and officials are friendly and supportive. I couldn't ask for a better experience when I race with them as they always encourage me. This race in particular was a good one for me as I PR'd my time from last year by over 9:08 mins. It also meant I won the long course sprint handicap event. I was absolutely thrilled with that!
