Swim
Comments: I started out in the front and was quickly overtaken. I stayed strong, though and never panicked. Was not able to swim smoothly before the first bouy due to the breakers. Did a little side stroke just to make sure I stayed calm. Once past the first buoy I started to relax, put my head in the water and dug in. What would you do differently?: Try to swim stronger sooner Transition 1
Comments: Very rocky pavement, difficult to run What would you do differently?: Just do everything faster, learn to jump on the bike Bike
Comments: Stayed in the big chain ring the whole way except for the hill. What would you do differently?: Start out the first leg stronger. I didn't feel srong until the 2nd leg and that was with the head wind. I should have gone stronger with the wind at my back. Transition 2
Comments: no problem finding my rack. hesitated a few seconds b/c i felt like I was forgetting something. What would you do differently?: not hesitate learn to side saddle off the bike aND JUMP OFF Run
Comments: This run was hot. I could tell I was going slowly, but just couldn't get my legs to go faster. by the turn-around, my left knee/IT band was killing me. I think it was b/c I was wearing old shoes. I did not feel any bounce in my step. What would you do differently?: have newer shoes Post race
Event comments: A lot of fun. Definitely will do this again next year to see improvement. Last updated: 2010-03-31 12:00 AM
