Age Group = M 30-34
Age Group Rank = 2/9

Pre-race routine:

I was actually on time (early) for once. I got a great spot on the rack and went for a short run.

Event warmup:

I hung with some fellow BTers and chatted for awhile.

Swim

02m 34s
191 yards
01m 20s / 100 yards

Comments:

A decent swim today. In 200 yards there isn't much time to find a rhythm. I wish the swim had been much longer. Short swim courses usually hurt my overall placement because I don't have a chance to put time into the fast bikers in the water.

Transition 1

00m 26s

Comments:

I had a my shoes already clipped in today. That's the first time this year I've done that. I think I'm good to go now for the rest of the year. I had a great spot right beside the bike out, so my trans was quick.

Bike

49m 54s
16 miles
19.24 mile/hr

Comments:

This was a tough course with several significant climbs. I kept pretending I was climbing the Col du Galibier and then Alpe du 'Huez.

Transition 2

00m 45s

Run

21m 8s
3.1 miles
06m 49s min/mile

Comments:

The course wasn't that difficult aside from the one tough hill that got me last year. I think it may have been measure long though. It's been years since I've gone over 21 minutes for 5k.

Post race

Warm down:

Hung with fellow BTers! Cool dudes. I ate a PBJ and of course, had a Sundrop. Since Karen and Bella stayed home I skipped the old drug store in town and those great bologna sandwiches and milkshakes; we'll go back next year when Bella is more manageable.
