Swim
Comments: The course was all right turns, but I naturally drift to the left. Time for me to get serious about bi-lateral breathing Transition 1
Comments: This was a good transition, went shirtless again. What would you do differently?: nothing Bike
Comments: This was a good ride for me. I attacked the bridges. At the last bridge I was feeling it pretty good, but I raced just like I wanted to. What would you do differently?: perhaps cool it a bit, it took a little too much out of me. Transition 2
Comments: This was a good trans. Grabbed the hat and belt and took off. A shirt might have come in handy. Glad there was shade on the course Run
Comments: I had good hydration from the bike leg. after my legs warmed up, the outside of my knee (the 'good' knee) started to hurt. It got worse as I sent. I knew I needed a stretch, but not one that I could do wihtout laying on the ground, so I just resolved to finish without stopping. Knee was quite sore later in the day. What would you do differently?: be a better runner? A little disappointed in the run, but I pushed pretty hard on the bike and knew I would have a little run trouble. Just need to train more I guess. Post race
Warm down: Food and hanging out, then a nice walk back the start. Event comments: They need oganizational help. The transition area was pretty wide open, they need to close it down, I could have left with a few bikes. Mandatory body markings and chips should be required to enter and both entry and exits should be monitored. The bike in traffic was pretty dangerous I thought. Not a race for trying again, liked the town, but the biking and traffic seemed like a bad combo. Last updated: 2009-09-01 12:00 AM
