That is so funny that the race doesn't have split times...I have never heard of such a thing. :)<br />Congrats on the 2 minute PR and another podium finish!! Awesome!!

Comparing run times on different courses is tough - and triathlons are REALLY hard, because there are three distances, and so much possible variability in water conditions, bike terrain, run terrain, etc. This series sounds pretty neat!<br /><br />Way to keep your calf in perspective - and to be safe about running/racing on it. Have fun (and continue to be careful!0 this weekend! :) :)Holly @ Run With Hollyhttp://www.runwithholly.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807472864232967654.post-47874225977190835922013-08-06T15:25:43.125-07:002013-08-06T15:25:43.125-07:00Great job.

The bike computer I have (which I didn't have at the race this weekend) doesn't have cadence. Maybe I'll need to upgrade! ;)Kristen Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11309610842667457857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807472864232967654.post-39716734624050543142013-08-06T09:29:33.661-07:002013-08-06T09:29:33.661-07:00Congrats on your 3rd place AG finish and yay for p...Congrats on your 3rd place AG finish and yay for podium pictures! I'm glad you were able to get through the race, even with your injury!<br /><br />One thing I would recommend getting for your bike is a Cateye (or other brand) computer for your bike that not only shows your time, speed, and distance, but also your cadence. That way, no matter whether you have your watch or not, you always know how fast you are going and if you are between 85-90 cadence. On my rides, I keep the cadence setting front and center and change my gears based on where my cadence is at. If I'm under 85 I need to go into an easier gear, if I'm over 90 I need to go into a harder gear. That has really been a game changer in terms of pacing and effort.<br /><br />Keep up the great work!Jesica @rUnladylikehttp://www.runladylike.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807472864232967654.post-35513083711852135192013-08-06T09:28:48.775-07:002013-08-06T09:28:48.775-07:00Great job!
