Pre-race routine:

My VERY FIRST TRIATHLON!!!!

Woke up at 3:30AM. Pre-race meal consisted of packet of instant oatmeal with 2% milk + half of a banana. Arrived at transition area at 4:45AM.
Event warmup:

Port-a-potty stop with a 1/2 hour line wait. Ugh! I was in wave 7, so even more waiting. Didn't really warm-up. This was my first triathlon... I didn't know that I had to! LOL!

My transition was slowish. It was difficult for me to run to the transition area and once there, I felt pooped! LOL!
What would you do differently?:

I wouldn't take the time to put on socks.

Performance: Good
The swim was everything that I expected. I positioned myself up in front b/c swimming is my strong suit. I was bumped around here and there, but otherwise it was painless. CAught some feet for a while which was nice. I probably over-exerted myself of the swim a bit b/c my heartrate was sky high upon exit. Diesel fumes from boats were TERRIBLE!!!! Non-wetsuit swim.
