Okay, Iceman is here again. I feel SO confident. I didn't really race at all this year, but my saddle time increased three fold.The most important lesson I learned in 2004 was how to start. No more sprinting, I'll let everyone else sprint. I'll move of through attrition.
Race went good, never had to stop for a rest. I did use Acclerade sport drink again (used it 2004 as well). Still not sure about this drink. I can't mix it as suggested because it's SO thick. Having a diluted drink doesn't help. I really need to start researching my nutrition if I want to really get better.
My time was 2 hours and 19 minutes. Last year I was 2 hours and 41 (?) minutes. I finished 67th out of 132, which is MUCH better than 113th I did the prior year. My goal for 2006 is top 20. I also will starting racing in the MMBA CPS.
Here are some pics from Iceman:
Thinking of doing a tri, but worried about the distance? That is a normal worry of beginner triathletes. Starting with a sprint triathlon can make it more enticing to the beginner triathlete.
