"mock" indoor triathlon before race

I would recommend you take it easy from here on out - my general rule is that I do not do any exercise (swim, bike or run) that is going to make me "sore" for 2-3 weeks before a race. If you are sore today, you won't be completly healed for about 10 days - which means you have compromised your performance on Sunday.

Definetly work on those transisiton times - that is a real easy way to cut your overall time, without working harder.

Good luck,

Dennis

Thanks for the advise. I will take it easy till Sunday. Last night was not really planned, I got to the Y to swim and just did it. I know I will cut time in the bike, on my bike in a real setting, I can easily do an avg of 20-22 for 20+ miles, my run is around 9-10 min/mi. I still happy with the swim. I have practised transitions, but not very much. I took a long time last night to dry off from the pool and to "dry" off from the stationary bike (no fan, it was in a dead air spot). I should be able to do T1 in about 2 min and T2 in about a min. Feeling sore is not the correct word, my calves have a slight twitch every 45 min or so, and other areas feel worked, but not over worked. I feel pretty good and I judge I will have a good race on Sunday!! I expect to finish MOP, but in the top half. I will post a race report when it is over!

congrats on your performance. be sure to take it easy with those sore muscles now! i did a mock tri before each of my races, but did very small distances (200-400 yards, 2-4 miles, 1-3 miles). helps build confidence, speedy transitions, without making your body hurt. that's what the race is for!
