Swim - 7:16.6 (31:36 min/mile pace)
T1 - 2:00.3
Bike - 36:49.8 (19.6 mph)
T2 - 1:04.4
Run - 23:38.0 (7:37 min/mile pace)
TOTAL - 1:10:49.1
Goal was to beat last year's overall time, which was 1:13:41...so mission accomplished.
Here's my comparison vs. last year's race, numbers in parentheses represent time difference from last year:
| 2009 | 2010 | ||
| Swim | 0:08:14 | 0:07:17 | (-0:57) |
| T1 | 0:01:25 | 0:02:00 | (+0:35) |
| Bike | 0:36:56 | 0:36:50 | (-0:06) |
| T2 | 0:00:39 | 0:01:04 | (+0:25) |
| Run | 0:26:26 | 0:23:38 | (-02:48) |
| Total | 1:13:41 | 1:10:49 | (-0:02:52) |
So my times for each discipline were faster, but my transitions were slower (for a reason)...more details on this tomorrow!
Here's how I stacked up against the rest of the field:
Swim - 6th out of 8 in my age group, 33nd out of 88 overall
T1 -2nd out of 8 in my age group, 10th out of 88 overall
Bike - 3rd out of 8 in my age group, 10th out of 88 overall
T2 - 5th out of 8 in my age group, 38th out of 88 overall
Run - 4th out of 8 in my age group, 21st out of 88 overall
TOTAL - 4th out of 8 in my age group, 14th out of 88 overall
As you can see, I'm in a really strong age group (30-34). My overall time would have been good enough to win the 20-24 or 25-29 age groups!
Finishing in the top 15% isn't bad, especially considering that I've been building my aerobic endurance over the last 3 months with very little time spent on my anaerobic capacity...which is what is used for a sprint distance race like this.
