Did Eastbourne triathlon this morning. Worlds AG qualifier standard distance. The races went of in AG waves so you pretty much know where you are. Needed top 5 but didn't make the cut. Was with the boys I needed to be with just about but feeling comfortable in 6th until the 2/3 mark on the bike but hit a pothole and dropped my chain and managed to jam it up trying to shift it back on so had to pull over and sort that out and lost a few places chased abit without burying myself and took one back but felt rough for the first half of the run and lost another couple of places then started feeling better and finished 10th so more long bricks and run volume moving forward I think plus a couple of bike set up changes should get me where I want to be. I thought the race was abit expensive at £110 but it was a big well organised race with plenty of facilities and closed roads and a decent goodie bag so maybe not so bad and would definitely recommend it.
