 Swim
Comments: Even though we started in pairs and spaced out 10 seconds, I was stuck in a bundle of swimmers between 100 and 200 meters. All of a sudden, everyone was gone (some were ahead and some I left behind) and I was able to finish the swim on my own rhythm. What would you do differently?: Feel good about my swim, but will have to do more speed work to improve my time. I have the endurance, now it's about the speed! :)  Transition 1
Comments: Climbed out of the pool and jogged to the bike. Found my transition area easily. Was a little shaky, so closing the shoes was a little difficult. Got a big sip out of my water bottle and grabbed a couple of Powerbar drops. What would you do differently?: Hurry up a little more? :)  Bike
Comments: This was a great ride. I know the route inside and out. I passed several people on the course and got passed a couple of times too. Over the last 2 miles I raced a guy and we passed each other three times or so. On the last nasty hill, I finally got him for good. What would you do differently?: Nothing. I am happy with this ride. Transition 2
Comments: Found my transition area easily again. Socks were optional for me for the run, but decided to put them on b/c I lost my blister band-aid somewhere on the way and didn't want to get issues with it on the run. What would you do differently?: Again... I have to hurry up.  Run
Comments: The first half mile felt bad... not so much my legs, but my stomach. I was aiming for a 10 minute average and was happy to see that I was able to stay under that for the segment. What would you do differently?: I need to get faster... I lost most ground on the run. Post race
Warm down: Walking around and some light stretching. What limited your ability to perform faster: Missing experience overall and running as weakest discipline. Profile Album Last updated: 2009-01-19 12:00 AM

Got up at 5:30AM. Had a granola bar and some water. Drove over to the Y and set-up transition. Got body marked on the way to pick up the chip. Had another granola bar.
None. I thought about swimming a couple of laps in the small pool, but that pool is so much warmer and I didn't feel like standing around freezing, because we had to line up early.
