Total: 2:56:05
1. Swim (updated with picture 15th floor):
Forgot to bring goggles. Only found out when setting up on the race day
morning. Panicked a bit. Borrowed a pair from a fellow racer. The
goggles strap was actually broken and it doesn't fit my face.
When I got into the water, borrowed goggles turned out to be leaking badly.
So I decided to take it off. My own goggles have correction and I don't use
contact. So eyesight was another big problem to deal with. Luckily, the swim
was in a lake with fresh clean water. If it were in Hudson River, I would
be blind after swim.
The swim leg was poorly organized. The course was counter clock wise out and
back. But there was only one buoy at the turning point!!! How the hell can I
see that!!!
After I tried to deal with my goggle, my wave was long gone. I had to wait
for next wave to come up so that I can be on the right direction. And did that
again for next two waves...
I probably end up swimming 1.5 miles instead.
2. Bike
I was really pissed with myself after getting out of water and pushed very
hard on the bike. The course was hilly but I still managed to maintain 20mph
speed average until…..
A Big Fall.
It was a 90 degree left turn right after a big downhill at mile 8ish. I was
on the aerobar pushing the speed and went directly to the grass field on the
right side of the road. If I had slowed down a bit or been better with
small angel turn, I might have been fine with that turn.
Fortunately I crashed onto the grass and was off the shoe clips immediately.
Rolled around twice on the ground and a slight head impact. The helmet
saved me.
Some skin was off. The pain was ok. But I was still in shock for a few
seconds lying on the ground. It’s a small race, nobody was there to help.
To my surprise, nobody even cared to stop and ask me how I was doing.
Then I climbed up, only to find that stem was twisted 30 degree leftward. No
tools available and nobody were willing to stop and help me.
The first mile with twisted stem was funny and slow. No aerobar any more for
sure. I got used to it after 2 or 3 miles and then the speed start to pick
up.
I actually managed to pass a lot of people on the twisted stem!
3. Run
Run was not easy on the rolling hill but I have nothing to complain. Passing
people was a lot of fun.
On a side note, support from fellow racers is crucial. especially for long distance event, something like 100milers. unfortunately this is a small local race and for some reason, people are not very nice there.
one guy with a big tool bag wasn't willing to lend me his allen wrench even tho he was on the side of the road replacing his tube. |

发帖数: 5141 | 2 Really sorry to hear about the goggles and the fall.
It is really unbelievable that no one had stopped and offered helps... Is it
only this race or because it is NYC?

I totally agree with how excellent the organisation, marshalls and local
support was for Ironman *** and want to add another category – my fellow
competitors without who I wouldn’t have finished.
After my tyre split, (resulting in 8 punctures), to all those who
unselfishly helped me by giving me 6 spare gas cartridges, a third inner
tube and eventually the hero who gave me their spare tyre!!!! Thank you………
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shouldn't the supports you get from fellow competitors be a very important
part of the game?

靠，还有这种SB？换了我就骂他了！我觉得大部分racers都还是很nice的。但极品SB时
不时也能碰上。
龙头歪了应该能拧回来吧？没有试一试站前面双腿夹住前轮用劲扳龙头？ |

发帖数: 19210 | 19 What? Tire split & 8 punctures? Always check tour equipment before a big
race.
One week before Muskoka 70.3, I discovered Jekky's P2's front tire has a 1cm
long cut. So I bought a new Conti Grand Prix 4000 to replace it. Otherwise
I might be the guy with 8 punctures.
