I headed west to Knoxville, TN to compete in a REV 3 Olympic Distance Race. I really enjoy racing Rev 3 events, the Rev 3 staff is excellent, and they've done a wonderful job organizing and putting on races at every distance.
Leading up to the race I felt great. I had been hitting all of my workouts and I was ready for a break through performance.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. I simply had a sub par performance in each aspect of the race. From the start of the swim, onto the bike and run, and even stumbling through T1, I just did not perform well. One of the few positive aspects of the race, was that I finished and in finishing I learned a little more about racing.
Back to training and to better races in the future. Next up is the 5150 Columbia Tri on May 20th.
Race Stats:
Swim: 18:19
Bike: 59:26
Run: 35:42
Total: 1:56:50
