  • The bike accounts for about 47% of your total time - the largest single leg.
  • Transitions add 5:00 (3% of total). Even 60 seconds saved in transition can move you up the field.
  • Your projected time is right around the average amateur finishing time for Olympic.
  • Nutrition and pacing strategy on the bike have the biggest impact on your run split - many triathletes go too hard on the bike and pay for it on the run.

Next stepBuild your race plan around these splits: if your swim and bike are strong, hold back 5-10% on bike effort to protect your run.
