Event warmup:

Drove about 25 min. to race.
Swim
  • 12m 15s
  • 440 yards
  • 02m 47s / 100 yards
Comments:

They had some technical problems because a buoy became unhooked during the men's waves. They held my wave up so that they could fix it - but the swim may have been short.
What would you do differently?:

Not much - this was a good swim for me.
Transition 1

Good transition
What would you do differently?:

No problems
Bike

  • 12.7 miles
  • 15.18 mile/hr
Comments:

Felt good about this ride.
What would you do differently?:

I dropped my water bottle about 5 miles in and decided to stop and get it. That probably cost me 30 sec to 1 min with the turnaround and stopping
Transition 2
  • 02m 14s
Comments:

Good transition, could have been a little faster.
Run
  • 27m 17s
  • 2.1 miles
  • 12m 59s  min/mile
Comments:

My goal was to actually RUN the whole race with no walk breaks and I did it. Very happy with this effort.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. I am not a great runner, so this was a good result for me.
Post race
Warm down:

Cool down and waited for my sister to finish. I wish they had more water at the finish.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

This was one of my best races. I beat my sister which doesn't happen much for me, so I was happy.

Event comments:

A good race overall, and better than I expected based on previous comments. They did have some problems with the buoy at the swim start, and I thought there was too much traffic on the run course, but it was a good local race.
