MoTO #TeamMonique
My first sprint triathlon is Wednesday. Please think floaty thoughts
You can do this! Also: remember to hydrate, carb load, protect those bits that need it from chaffing, and have fun! - WoH: Professor MOTHRA
WHO ME, NERVOUS? - MoTO #TeamMonique
Nope. Not you. - LB: #TeamMonique
Float like a butterfly. A fast speeding train of a butterfly. A BUTTERMOTO - ωαřмaiden ❤Marrit Woman❤
Colleen is now my favorite. I luh you, baby - MoTO #TeamMonique
My Biggest Tip: Kick your legs hard the last 20-30 meters of your swim. ALL the blood will be in your arms and if you try to stand up coming into the bike transition, you will have a massive head spin. Kicking your legs hard will get the heart distributing the blood more evenly and it won't be so much of a massive load to shift. I speak from "falling over while trying to put my shoes on" experience :) - Johnny
#gomotogo You can do it! - Heleninstitches
Btw, what's a 'sprint' triathlon? - Heleninstitches
Good luck today! Don't break anything, except PRs! - c.a.j.
*shakes pompoms* - Kirsten
Sending you floaty thoughts right NOW! - Running Slow
Johnny - Thanks. I usually "kick like hell: the last bit to make the ordeal end anyway. Good advice though. - MoTO #TeamMonique
delightful Helen - A sprint tri is (I believe) half of an Olympic distance. We swim 800 meters, bike 12.5 miles, and run a 5K. I've done 5 in the last 2 years. Don't ask me why because it hurts a lot. - MoTO #TeamMonique
Good luck! - Yvonne
Thanks Pete, WoH, LB, caj, Kirsten, Jylli, & Yvonne - MoTO #TeamMonique
