Swim
Comments: The only good thing I did was round the buoys. I freaked a little in the first 200 yards, started hyperventilating a little. Realized I wasn't exhaling under water. So I finally started exhaling and it helped me relax. Finally got my rhythm the last couple hundred yards. That was the waviest swim I've done. What would you do differently?: Get in the water and get comfortable. The initial shock with the run start from the beach kind of took my breath. Think about exhaling with each stroke. Transition 1
Comments: Was a pretty long run from the beach to transition. Kept a steady jog all the way to the far end where Jill was waiting to do the bike. It was already getting hot. I'm so glad I just had to do the swim. Spent the rest of the time keeping Josh cool as the temp crept up to near 100 degrees. Poor Trish had to do the 4 mile run. yuck. Bike

Post race
Event comments: Great post race party. Met up with Laura and Marcie. One complaint- venue too far from parking. Had to push my son in the stroller all the way. At least there was a bus to go back to parking. Need a few more buses, one doesn't cut it. Next year I plan on doing this race myself. Last updated: 2005-07-25 12:00 AM

Last week I was asked if I wanted to do a relay at Harbor Lights, of course I said yes. :-) We were Team Dental since we were all dental hygienists.
Got in a 1.5 mile run when the packet was left at my house. Almost 2 miles to the venue. Sheesh.
Fed my son and went to the bathroom, that was about it.
