I had a SLOWER speed on all three legs than last triathlon, a worse percentile and a slower time. This really sucks, and makes me mad, and should serve to motivate for winter workouts. To the pool, to the bike, and to the run.
There were some important differences between the conditions and courses, but ultimately they are a bit of a wash, with this one having shorter swim, longer bike, cool conditions, and hilly courses. It comes down to the mental and physical preparation of the competitor, and there's clearly work to be done.
I was definitely more comfortable during the swim and I was able to jog the transition, but the larger point is that any triathlon you go away from feeling good is a slow triathlon. I for sure did not train for a 2 hour race, so endurance training is in order as well.
