Transitions

We are getting ever closer to Iron Girl Atlanta. To be prepared it is very helpful if you practice TRANSITION. Transition is the changing between disciplines during a triathlon. The first transition comes when you come out of the water for the swim and get ready to go out on the bike ride. It's also referred to as T1. The second transition comes when you return from the bike ride, rack your bike, take your helmet off, and go out on the run. It's important to know what you are doing. In order to be comfortable it helps to practice transitions.

Or you can click on this link for the video about transitions that you should watch before doing transition practice. Sorry it's 11 minutes long but there is a bonus: Hurley makes an appearance. One thing to note: you may not be wearing a wetsuit so ignore any references to that. Also, I will be bringing a race belt for you to use that will hold your race number. (You'll understand what I'm talking about after you watch.)
