Pre-race routine:

This is dictated by my daughter Emily who is 10:
I woke up at 5am, ate toast and had water, and got in the car. We got lost going to the race 3 times and I was nervous we'd get there in time.
Event warmup:

Not anything but rode my bike to the transtion area, and set up my area. I met a nice women who helped me. She could tell I was nervous.

Comments:

The swim was weird because I couldn't pass anyone. It was so crowded and lots of people were walking. Once I got out of the water I was glad to get out. I swallowed water and it got up my nose and it tasted weird. (ocean swim)
What would you do differently?:

I would go a little deeper so it would be easier to swim.

Ran up beach and across the road. I passed people running to the transition area. I had hard time getting my shoes on.
What would you do differently?:

Get my shoes on faster and try faster overall.
