![]() Swim
Comments: Waited too long for the swim. 1st wave was around 0745, I went off around 2 hours later. Best swim yet. Last lap was possibly the fastest. 1st lap 30 strokes down, 34 back. After that stroke count was consistently 34 to 36 per length, except last length which was 31. What would you do differently?: Get in an earlier swim wave. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Had to put a shirt on after the swim and since I was wet the shirt got stuck the whole way. This was frustrating. What would you do differently?: Wear a one piece tri suit for the whole race. ![]() Bike
Comments: I need to hydrate better on the bike. What would you do differently?: Perhaps a new hydration technique, like a water bottle in the aerobars. Need to look into this. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Need to look into "YANKS", instead of tying my shoes. What would you do differently?: YANKS, maybe. ![]() Run
Comments: I never felt light on my feet, my legs felt heavy and I died after the half way point. Not nearly enough fluids and it was hotter than any training day I've had yet this season. What would you do differently?: Hydrate better. ![]() Post race
Warm down: None. What limited your ability to perform faster: Hydration and possibly nutrition. Event comments: You can't beat this race for 12 dollars. Nice T-shirt too. There wasn't enough rack space for bikes, some had to lay them on the ground. Other than that, well run and a lot of fun. I will definitely do it again next year. Last updated: 2009-05-20 12:00 AM
