SubscribeSubaru Triathlon Series: Milton Triathlon Race Report
Posted on Jun 14, 2011 under fitness, Raves | Comments are offI can hardly believe that its been so long since the Milton tri. On one hand it seems like forever ago, on the other its still so fresh in my mind that it seems like yesterday. Such a dichotomy! 🙂
Milton was my 1st tri. Sure I’d completed each of the events individually (many times at significantly longer distances) but this was my 1st experience stitching them all together, racing the combined event, and dealing with the transitions.
What a BLAST! I had SO much fun it’s silly!
I’d planned on a full race report, but at this point, I don’t think it makes sense anymore.
My results:

I placed 31/64 in my age group in the swim. Middle of the pack.. ok with it, but can do better. Started the swim wayyy too hot and had to really slow down to regather myself and find my stroke. Once I was in the zone I felt good, but had to overcome a moment of initial near-panic and self-doubt.
11/64 on the bike – destroyed. Happy with this. There were a lot of people blocking and drafting on the bike course, which frustrated me, but I still had fun. My bike time could have been better if it hadn’t been for blocking and for dropping my chain and having to stop to fix it.
35/64 on the run – wasn’t very happy with this. Need to do more bricks and more speed work on my runs.
Great weather, great fun. Happy with 1st time out for sure.
