Pre-race routine:

Was running a little late, setup transition as usual.
Event warmup:

hardly any warmup, as it was a TT start and i figured I'd just get cold waiting to start. I did go in the water to get used to it and do a short swim as the water temp was 53... Brrr...
Swim
  • 07m 24s
  • 440 yards
  • 01m 41s / 100 yards
Comments:

Swim went well, past a bunch of people, hit some shallow water near the beach and got up and ran when I found myself dragging my hands in the sand.
What would you do differently?:

Go a bit harder with less leg kick.
Transition 1
  • 02m
Comments:

Did a 1/2 decent flying mount (shoes already on) didn't clip in well and smashed my junk on the seat a bit when my shoes slipped off the pedals.
What would you do differently?:

Not smash my junk.
Bike
  • 1h 08m 50s
  • 21 miles
  • 18.31 mile/hr
Comments:

Would probably like to go harder, but i can't complain, I was saving my legs for a good run which I didn't have until this race.
What would you do differently?:

Gone harder up the hills.
Transition 2
  • 01m 2s
Comments:

Decent T2 nothing special.
What would you do differently?:

Do it faster...
Run
  • 40m 57s
  • 5 miles
  • 08m 11s  min/mile
Comments:

Ran well, stopped to take a leak at the turn around point, it was getting uncomfortable.
What would you do differently?:

Try and push harder the last mile, not sure though it was a good run for me.
Post race
Warm down:

Stopped, ate some food, walked around... Took "ice bath" in 53 deg lake.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Power output on the bike and run... Effort level on the swim. Need to be able to go faster aerobically on the bike is key.

Event comments:

Wicked fun race, lots of cool stuff to do during and after and a great location.
