 Swim
Comments: had a minor anxiety attack (lets call it mini freak out) actually even less, I just did a bit of breast stroke to get my breathing right, then settled in for a lovely swim. I need to get back into the pool to practice I could have easily done this in +25 minutes with some practice. What would you do differently?: TRAIN  Transition 1
Comments: I keep saying this but I need to practice getting into my bike shoes using rubber bands to keep them clipped in. Also need to practice a run without socks and a ride without socks. otherwise all went well.  Bike
Comments: Lovely course, loved the clim at the end. What would you do differently?: I did this Cannibal, I snapped my front derraileur cable on the Friday just before we left and did not want to take a chance with the race mechanic (good call) he would not have been able to fix the internal routed cable. So took my road bike instead. Transition 2
Comments: overshot my spot again but just wasted about 5 seconds What would you do differently?: need to mark spot better  Run
Comments: terrible run, I ran about an extra .2M as I missed a turn, so did two other guys that followed me. I think I lost about 30 seconds or more for sure. Otherwise run was ok, it was hot so I underpreformed as usual in the heat. What would you do differently?: learn course Post race
Warm down: Stretched and walked around, got some food etc What limited your ability to perform faster: training and the lack of the Tribike Event comments: Great race it is not USTA sanctioned but well worth it. They people are super friendly and the amenities are very good. Very nice DryRelease shirt. Last updated: 2009-06-15 12:00 AM

Very bad, night before ended up going to the Pub at the Rocky Gap resort, had a chicken sandwhich with fries, all greasy couple of beers. Food sat really heavy in my stomach. Then found out that they would not have breakfast until 6:30. Had a cup of coffee and then some animal crackers which I took from the kids :) Got to the race and found a banana and a bagel, good stuff. Toilet stop 3 times! Thanks to all the fried food I am sure. Set up my stuff and headed over to the swim start.
nothing really just jumped in the water to get the suit wet. Lovely water temp +- 72F lovely lake, very clear, flat perfect fresh water swim conditions.
