hill climb fitness test

The road to the radio towers is short, but features a super-steep grade up a 400-foot ascent.  requires good bike handling skills & slow-speed skills.  starts with a 28.5% grade section and then moderates (if you can call it that) to a 13-17% grade.  It really doesnt sound steep, but when you are on it, it is very difficult to climb - once you stop, its very difficult to restart.  still coughing 7 hours after.

rage tri run + summary (1.5k/40k/10k)

fun event. didn’t swim as fast as I could have. will plan to start closer to the front next time & pretreat goggles (oversight). T1 was slower than it should have been - fighting with old surfing wetsuit. will shorten arms & legs and apply more pam next time. Once on the bike, I gained ground. Lots of rabbits to chase & passing people throughout. T2 was excellent - quick. Used up a lot of gas on the bike tho & the run was a challenge. I need to be more disciplined about training the run, as I’ve run much faster 10k times at this weight. Experienced some abdominal cramping, which was a first. Not bowel problem - felt like side stitch but below lungs. After walking 20 seconds, it passed.

I’ll definitely do this again. finish time was 2:50:14 (unofficial).
