Spring Sprint 2011

I competed in the Spring Sprint Triathlon on Sunday, May 1, 2011, at South Shores Park, and I had a great race!

Swim
Last year's swim time was 11:44. This year's swim time was 8:39. It did seem like the course was shorter than last year's course. However, for the first time, I felt great on the swim! I swam pretty much in a straight line. I concentrated on my kick, my stroke, and bilateral breathing, and it all came together!


Bike
This was my first race with my new Cervelo. Last year's bike time was 33:26. This year's bike time was 30:30, a three-minute improvement.

Run
Last year's run time was 24:29. This year's run time was 25:29. I pushed very hard on the swim and the bike, and that's the reason why my run time was slower.

Overall
Last year's time was 1:09:39. This year's time was 1:04:38...a five-minute improvement and PR! Good enough for second place! I was very happy with my effort and results on the day!
