What can I say? I panicked and went crazy slow. I need to practice in open water before i do this again.

practice.

I don't have bike shoes so this went as good as can be expected. It took me a min to jump on the bike and get my feet in.

Oh my. Way slower than it should have been. I was taking it easy and I should have been pushing. I guess I didn't realize how slow I was b/c I wasn't watching the time, but I didn't want to be stressed so I gave my watch away. I felt good on this bike, but I should have left it all on the course which I did not by any means. oops.

ugh. i probably should have run faster, but this being the first triathlon and having not practiced running after biking much at all, I just pust my head down and tried to settle into the run part.
Post race
Warm down:

nothing

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I was feeling scared and was new so I didn't know what to expect from each leg. Now I know, I think I can do a better job at the next one.

Event comments:

Will definitely do another triathlon. I think I need to join the tri club to get some focused support.
