Swim
Comments: Swimmers entered the water too often. It wasn't staggered enough. At about the 200m meter point, the lane was bottlenecked with 3 swimmers blocking the lane. I finially swam through the pack and ended up totally winding myself for the rest of the swim. NOTE - Speedy Feet had my swim time as my estimated swim time, which I believe I did a little bit faster than that. What would you do differently?: I felt as if I wa sprepared for a good swim. I don't know that I would have done anything different other than slow down at the beginning. Transition 1
Comments: I took a minute off of my last tri T1 time. I still think I can do better. What would you do differently?: Would like to buy some tri shoes and have the shoes already clipped in to the pedals. Bike
Comments: I pushed it as hard as I could on the bike. I felt like I should have done better than I did with the effort I put in, which tells me that I need to train A LOT more. What would you do differently?: Train Train Train Transition 2
Comments: Coming into T2 was kind of confusing. I wasn't sure how far I could ride my bike until I had to jump off. I ended upjumping of a little early and running with the bike. This could be chalked up to my inexperience. What would you do differently?: Just continue to train. Run
Comments: This is always my worst. Being as i'm not a hugr fan of running, it's the one discipline I only train "when I have time", which shows in my times. My legs were noodles after the bike so running was a bit awkward. What would you do differently?: Run more! Post race
Warm down: walked a bit and then headed straight for the car. Had to get my buddy home who rode with me. Got home and went for a nice slow and easy 15 mile bike ride. What limited your ability to perform faster: Swim - bottleneck in the lanes Bike - training Run - training Event comments: I'm too new at this to really form an opinion. NOTE - Speedy Feet had my split times posted but now they are gone. So, my times are based off of memory from a few days ago when the times were actually posted. Last updated: 2009-04-28 12:00 AM
