Swim
What would you do differently?: I would make sure that I do some Open Water swims before my next race. I would do a better job of sight swimming and trying to swim straight. Calm down! Don't freak out!!!! Transition 1
Comments: T1 was a bit odd because it was at least a 1/4 mile run up a boat ramp to the transition area. Struggled to get my suit off my ankles. Had to sit down on the ground. Once suit was off, it went well. Bike
Comments: Bike was pretty good. First couple of miles werent too bad. Miles 3 - 8 were tough because they were primarily uphill. What would you do differently?: Need to do some hills practice before next race with hills. Transition 2
Run
Post race
Event comments: This race was a bit small, only 300 - 400 participants. Very competitive race with only about 20% first timers. The draw of this race is the beauty of the course. May not be a prettier race in the country! Last updated: 2009-10-10 12:00 AM

We got there about 2.5 hours before the race started. Jonathan was running the Olympic so we got there a little earlier. It was cold and dark when we got there.
Just a little jogging, no real warm-up. Maybe that was a mistake
