Swim
Comments: Water felt good and cool. Took it really easy because I knew I was shot from the prior day and my muscles were cramping already during the warmup run. What would you do differently?: Nothing; swam straight and smooth. Transition 1
Comments: Tried to help a guy in my race division get out of a wetsuit. Whoever zipped him permanently destroyed the zipper mechanism. After a minute or so a relay person came over to take over for me. The guy DNF'ed because he couldn't get the suit off AT ALL. What would you do differently?: Nothing, I felt like crap and didn't mind helping out someone who was looking to do good. Bike
Comments: Easy cruise. Sat up to thank the volunteers for coming out where I could and kept the HR Z2/Z3. Low power. What would you do differently?: Nothing, was a fun cool ride. Transition 2
Comments: uneventful Run
Comments: This was the leg I was worried about because of my warmup. Jogged the first mile and then picked it up from there. Negative split the run and finished very strong at ~6 pace. What would you do differently?: Nothing, tested my legs and muscles and adjusted pace accordingly. Post race
Warm down: Nothing, had to get back to the cabin to pack up and clean to be out by 10:30 What limited your ability to perform faster: Racing an Oly distance 100% all out through cramps the previous day. Event comments: Perfect end to race weekend. This was actually the Southeast Regional Sprint Champsionships... which I podiumed NBD. As expected all the heavy hitters raced hard in the half and oly the previous day and were dead for this one. The race was dominated by regular AG athletes instead of the Open athletes per Set Up's typical race results. Great venue. Great course. I'll be back next year for another full weekend of racing. This was a fun "recovery race". Last updated: 2014-07-09 12:00 AM

Woke up at 4:30 with the rest of the cabin and ate breakfast. Went to the race venue early.
Ran a few miles and did some swimming. Water was much colder than yesterday. Yeah that's right. BACK TO BACK TRIATHLONS. Right away I could tell I was extremely fatigued. Ran very very slow downhill and my HR was in Z3. Coach asked me to bag the race.
