Great job! Starting a half-marathon after three hours of hard cycling (and a swim!) must be daunting. Do you practice the transitions or is it all autopilot by now? I picture myself halfway through the run and finding my goggles are still on.

Thanks! I've never practiced transitions but gave them a lot of thought my first couple races. Now I still think about it when I'm getting my transition area ready on race day because I'm piling up gear in the order I intend to use it. I really want to get a good 70.3 run in. I probably need more bike-run workouts, and maybe I need to be smarter about my run volume. I ordered the book "80/20 Triathlon" that's popular. I think it's all about 80% of workouts being Z1/Z2 efforts. We'll see how it goes.
