i crashed my bike 3 times , i think it you will still win, 1st place was super ahead of me, when i started the running part he teleported right next to me.

 

Also i ended up f*cking up my A button so i had to buy a new controller. POS.

Over 30? You slow bro!

I was mashing x fast consistently the whole time. I was as fast as my character would permit

I was in the lead in the bike part and took a corner over the sidewalk to try and gain a little more of an advantage when I hit a speed limit sign and it killed me :( Haven't tried it since. I was smart though as far as controller wear, I have one of the original PS3 controllers laying around from years ago (non-dualshock one) so I used that (and will use it for this triathlon until I beat it) so that way I don't potentially f*ck up my main controller.

 

 

 

The swim was the most painful part...seriously glad I beat it on my first try.

I found if you swim under water you can gain a pretty decent lead as you swim faster, so in addition to Stamina being maxed out (and Strength though not sure if that one matters) make sure you have the Lung Capacity maxed out too so you can swim under water for longer periods of time.

took me 26 mins, but the poorly balanced ai still jogged past me at 2x my speed 15 meters from finish line.. was clicking the sprint button so fast I was worried it would climax.. still lost.. I love the triathalons but rockstar seriously need to fix the ai speeds.

Lol the short races even reminded me of Decathlon on the Atari 2600.

 

 

Cant wait for the long race.. thank god you can just pause it when you get tired/cramped.

I really hate this sh*t. And sadly I have too do it again because I lost my 100% save and only got my 40% backed up...

I was in the first place but I finish fourth because I missed two yellow markers near the finish line because i ran too close to the sidewalk. That's F bullsh*t. This is one of the things I don't like when it comes to this sort of mini-games when the yellow marker is not over the whole F road...

Yeah same here. When I started it I had no idea it would be that long, the one I did before that was only like 5 minutes maybe. I did it early in the game and didn't have anywhere close to full stamina (though I did after the race I think). Basically your stamina doesn't run out if you keep a moderate and steady stride in all the different legs of the race. Biking is the easiest, just let it coast down any hill and you'll build your stamina back up and go faster than you would if you pedal.

Tedious but nothing compared to, say, shooting 200 pigeons from IV. It took 29 mins personally, wouldn't do it again but worth it for the extra %.
