Age Group = males
Age Group Rank = 37/39
Pre-race routine:

banana and water. showed up 20 mins before race time for registration thinking it started at 10 am like the last one, and it startd at 9! no real warmup, just had to set up transition area hit the bathroom and get to the line.
Event warmup:

ran a few hundred yards and stretched. did no good due to the cold wind and snow.
Swim
  • 15m 40s
  • 500 yards
  • 03m 08s / 100 yards
Comments:

going from the run to the swim was VERY HARD for me. it took over 250 yds before i could settle my heartrate and breathing down and just swim instead of gasp. not a bad time for me, but with my slow transition, it hurts.
What would you do differently?:

train more, get faster.
Transition 1
  • 01m 42s
Comments:

the bike was cancelled, so this was just run-to-swim. I had to navigate around everyone as the T area was on the pool deck, get undressed and get back into lane 1 before i started. and i forgot my goggles again. at least i didn't get in the pool without them this time.
What would you do differently?:

i need to train the transitions more, i guess. but the run-to-swim really threw me for a loop.

i was slower. the wind and cold took its toll, but so did my lack of training for this one.

train as much as i did for the first race in this series.
