Comments: When I jumped in, I nearly lost my HR strap, had to stop and put it back on After that it went okay, felt a few times like slowly loosing it I guess it is better to put it on in T1 without wet suit What would you do differently?: Leave HR strap in T  Transition 1
Comments: No 3 out of 7 Clydes Had 1 gel and a bit of Heed What would you do differently?: I need to start practicing leaving my shoes on the bike  Bike
Comments: The wind felt pretty bad, as the course was so flat Used my Trek 1000 without aero bars After all the miles of the last few weeks without aeorbars I got used to that Had approx 18mph avg on my way out, the way back was fun Had one bottle of Heed What would you do differently?: Cant wait for my new bike! Transition 2
Comments: Was no 4 out of 7 Clydes Had 1 gel and a bit of Heed What would you do differently?: Maybe I should start and take the gel with me on the run  Run
Comments: I started out with a 8:30 pace, hoping that later in the run I would be able to push harder, but rather I got slower by the mile... The heat was pretty immense (by the time of the run it must have been 80+), but in comparison I seemed to have dealt with that better than others, pretty unusual that I would be around the middle of the field in the 35-39 AG Mile splits 8:24, 167 8:33, 170 8:42, 171 8:38, 175 8:54, 173 9:03, 174 8:38, 176 What would you do differently?: Loose weight, more tempo runs Post race
Warm down: Lots of water, some beer, fruits Met rottieguy, his wife and TrishM What limited your ability to perform faster: The bike should get better with the new bike Other than that I really need to focus on the run, that is where I am loosing the most time Event comments: Very good race Flat course helps with the times Lots of volunteers on the bike course, just once a policeman overestimated my distance and signaled a car to go, but the driver luckily saw me, needed to slow down just a little Last updated: 2009-08-01 12:00 AM

Overall Rank = 90/255
Age Group = Clydes - U40
Age Group Rank = 1/7
Race started at 7.30am, my wave at 7:48
Woke up at 5am, had about 50 min drive. By the time I loaded the car, it was 6:20am until I got there
Parking was a little off-site, so the time for preperation was just about right
Had 1 ClifBar, 2 bananas, some Heed and a coffee, that combination seems to work best for me, no issues later on ;-)
As always, nothing really
