Once broken down step-by-step they were pretty easy to do. And we had ample opportunity to practice them on the million bike/run intervals that afternoon. For those that might not have tried before: 1. Sight a spot approx. 300m from the dismount line. 2. Loosen your right shoe strap. Pedal to keep up speed. 3. Loosen your left shoe strap. Pedal up to speed. 4. Pull right foot out of shoe. Place on top of shoe. Pedal. 5. Pull left foot out and ontop of shoe. Pedal some more. 6. Within 10feet of dismount line, swing right foot over the back of saddle so only your left foot is on the pedal. 7. Drop down with right foot, followed by left foot at a run. Repeat until second nature. Having tri-shoes makes this MUCH easier! Wearing gloves makes this MUCH harder! ;) Actually, really well! Once broken down step-by-step they were pretty easy to do.
