Columbia Triathlon

Swim:

Swim was great, very comfortable with my pace and pleased with the result.

Bike

Good course, rolling hills. Chester County is great prep for a hilly course. Pleased with 19.25 mph pace.

Run

Again my weakest area, I was please I stuck out the run for the full 10k although it was tempting to walk one or two of the hills. I was hoping to keep the pace under 7:30 so I need to keep up my run miles up. The humidity  was definitely a factor on the run.

Pleased with my overall time of 2:33:49.  With the exception of the run I felt like I had plenty in the tank to swim further and to keep riding at the same pace. This was a full 2 minutes better than my Red Bank Oly a few years ago and that was with a tidal swim and flatter bike.  I shaved time off each area.
