Pre Race
Arrive early! Familiarize yourself with the transition zone, set your computer to the transition. Make sure that you have trained without gloves or socks if going to the race without them. To save time in the transition zone.
Come early to choose the place of your bike rack, especially if the race is using open racks instead of assigning one. Ideally, you want your bike either come out of the transition zone and closer to the end of the row as you can find easily.
Check the path of the swim to the bike run to see if there are some places avoided. Remember that your bike is, memorizing the number of racks to your bike, the position on the grid so you can quickly and easily identify without confusion.

If your shoes are no longer on the bike with them on, sunglasses, and helmet. Before taking the bike off the rack make sure your helmet is secure.
Changing Lanes T1 to your bike must be on the right, so that the ring of the chain is away form his body. Holding the bike by the seat instead of handlebar can run faster and are in a vertical position. Practice this before the event so that management is confident that from this position. Once you have crossed the assembly line to the bike. If the shoes are on the bike, pick up some speed before lowering the feet in your shoes. Start drinking to get on the bike instead of in the transition zone.
T2: Bike-to-Run

The change in an easier gear and increase cadence that will improve your leg speed for the race.

It may take from several hundred meters to a mile or two of his legs to adjust. The incorporation of Brick Training in their training is the best way to decrease the amount of time it takes to adjust the legs, since they involve the same challenge to run immediately after receiving off the bike they will face in the actual race. For instance, try to fifteen minutes of cycling followed by five minutes of running and repeat 2-3 times on the basis of their physical condition.
