Run
Comments: Felt comfortable. Stuck behind Tiffany Kitto. She is a great runner and not too shabby to run behind either!! She ended up getting second overall. Wanted to be around 6:30/pace but close enought. Kind of was just hoping fro that pace. What would you do differently?: heal ankle and speedwork Transition 1
Comments: This was a horrible transition. I could not get helmet on and had trouble getting shoes off. Just a lot slower than i could have done What would you do differently?: maybe practice transition. Bike
Comments: Tailwind going out probably around 26-27 going out. Tried to hammer it a bit and gain time bc i knew that headwind was going to kill me. Passed a bunch. Hit turn around and hit me like a ton of bricks. Out did 11:30 back I did 17:10. Bad wind. Passed by about 2 strong cyclers here. What would you do differently?: harder efforts in training. Transition 2
Comments: Another disappointing transition. Helmet got stuck. Had trouble putting shoes on bc of ankle brace. What would you do differently?: go faster Run
Comments: I wanted to do this one in 14:00 very unrealistic. Sun was starting to beat and legs just werent firing. Wind on bike killed them a bit. This is when i was thinking i need to do more bricks. Kind of disappointed because I wanted to be around 57:30. But there was no way. What would you do differently?: BRICKS Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of brick workouts. Event comments: Stinks because I did the race 5 seconds faster last year and definatly wanted to improve but 5 seconds short. Seems like my age group is on steroids too. Last updated: 2010-03-30 12:00 AM

up at 5am. Took 5 units of insulin and ate a banana and a power bar. Took 25 of Levemir last night. Usually ive been taking 30 but wanted to cut it down some. Not so good bc BS was 250 before race. Took 3 units to even it off.
Jogged maybe 8-10 minutes. Ankle still busted and debated wearing ankle brace. I did because this is the first race where I will be pushing it and didnt want to mess it us anymore. This thing just seems like it is never going to get better.
