Yeah, that wasn't necessary R*!

 

My first time I failed at 21 minutes. Imagine that fun! I hit a pedestrian and fell of my bike. Then he wanted to beat me up so he wouldn't let me get back on and leave. I tried to fight him but the game wouldn't let me. He killed me, I failed, and 21 minutes wasted. Good times!

This event caught me by surprise. I was 1st after the swimming, but fell 3 times while biking and thought I was screwed. Luckily the game adjusted its AI performance to mine and I managed to place 1st. I had to switch between my thumb and fingers with all that pounding. Perhaps, a better control scheme should have been implemented. As it is now, that marathon is ridiculously stupid all due to the sprint implementation chosen by Rockstar.

Same thing happend to me man! Altho I just crashed in the supporters and killing one so instant fail. Well, I was playing with Trevor so that might be the reason....Franklin got it 1st try :)

Hated the third triathlon, especially the part with the bike riders passing me even though I had unlimited stamina and I was mashing the A button like crazy.

 

Completed it with Michael, would have to buy one of those controllers with a turbo button before even thinking of trying it for a second time with a different character.

I was 1st at the very end and somehow someone passed me, was sure I got first but the final screen said 2/8...hell I'm lucky I got that I guess after falling twice on the bike (good thing I ran into the top 5 when I was getting to the end..put me back at 1 for the running). This is one gold I can do without.

almost posted a thread on this the other day when I did it, it was so brutal, once I realized the swim was across the lake I knew R* was about to take the triathlon to a whole knew level and actually make it a real physical contest.

 

I was going to try and do it without pausing but around 23 mins of tapping as fast as I could go, I literally had to take a break. But its cool that they did that, had no idea how fast those triathlons got out of hand. first one was like 8 mins, second 12 mins, third almost 30?! lol was still fun though.

 

Thank God I got first, would never want to do that again.

 

edit: and oh I shit my pants when I fell off my bike at the very end of the bike portion, thought I would lose it all just because of that 24 mins in!
