This swim is usually current assisted but this time the tide was still slightly against us due to wave timings. Felt like I swam well and was pushing hard. Lost a good draft as we caught up to some slower swimmers from earlier waves. Happy with my effort and time but my age group position was a little disappointing.

Work harder to keep my draft

Felt pretty weak on the bike and struggled into the headwind sections. Heaps of turns on the course makes it tough to get into a rhythm but I'm still weak on the bike in comparison to the rest of my age group.

Get stronger and much faster on the bike!

Great dismount

Nothing - good transition.

Felt like I was running well early on and was pacing really well off one of the slower Pro women. On the second lap though (she had finished her run) I started to struggle and my right calf started to really tighten up. With 1.5km to go my calf gave way and I had to limp/struggle my way to the finish. Disappointing because I was on target for a good time.

Get lighter and do some calf strengthening work.

Weight and fitness - need to lose 5kg.
