Fag-end of tri stuff

andygatesWell, the results are in and I've finally stopped eating: 1:32:56, so a 1:30 target for next time is well in view.
15:00 for the swim - ha! - right in the bottom of the field. Plenty of room for improvement. No surprises there - I ought to be able to take two minutes off that by just not stopping ;)
42:30 for the bike, which is about midway up the field. I shouldn't feel disappointed at that - it includes both of my wooly transitions and the field is pretty tight with only 30 seconds for the next fifty places. Conclusion: transition matters ;) Also: I was so beasted in the swim that it slows my T1. Lessons learned.
And gods, 35:26 for the run, which is slow even for my regular training pace. Sorry, Xeeny, to attach your name to such a feeble run time. More water, longer strides, more bricks. And happy brainworms!
Overall position? 229 out of 278, around the 80th percentile. Matches my half-marathons, but doesn't get me too excited. That was a "set a base" tri. Now to work on those times!
