2nd place out of 10 in Clydesdales, easy swim, fun/flat race, well run race
The bad:
Hot, humid, no PR, slept bad last night
I woke up at 4:55 to the annoying sound of my alarm...which I never use. I jumped up, showered and got ready in about 20 min. Uneventful drive to race, easy check in.
Swim 8/10
300m swim was in a 50m pool, I got passed once. Found my grove and didn't really have to stop and catch my breath much. There was a 35 second walk from where I got out of the pool to where you hit the timing mats. I still have so much room to improve my swim time.
Bike 7/10
I passed tons of folks on the bike. It was windy, but mostly flat and fast. Garmin shows 13.7 miles, was supposed to be 12.4...this helps explains the slow mph average. Garmin has me at 20.2, still slower than the Benbrook tri.
Run 6/10
Took over a mile for my legs to get moving after the bike. I drank too much on the bike too. I ran a negative split, which is awesome! Flat and fast run course.
Overall 8/10, well run race, reasonable entry fee, nice shirt and swag. Got a 2nd place medal. Enjoyed the race and hope to do it again next year.
