Up at 4:30am. Scott was working this race so we had to be to the race site by 5:30am. I slept in the back of Jeep Liberty once we got there and got a few more hours sleep!
Event warmup:

Little jog around the transition area!

Slow transition for me. I had a hard time getting my wetsuit off and I just felt like all thumbs!
What would you do differently?:

Use more body glide!

My legs felt really heavy at first. I was thinking it may have been my 35 mile ride the day before but then I realized it was the immediate hill we had to climb coming out of transition. My felt better as my ride continued! Again...my time was faster than my 2008 time so I can't complain.
Transition 2

Comments:

Not sure why it took me so long in transition? Maybe b/c I had to tie my shoes. I need to get some yankz!
What would you do differently?:

Get some yankz!
