Run
Comments: Started great at sustainable pace that kept me feeling solid into the bike. What would you do differently?: Ignored other runners as much as possible. Maybe warm-up with more strides to prime up the lungs. Transition 1
Comments: Took a little longer to get feet strapped in, but a successful run mount with shoes on bike. What would you do differently?: Practice getting feet in shoes more often, especially with wet feet. Bike
Comments: Tough ride against the elements. Good out of saddle climbs - definitely could gained ground on opponents when getting out of the saddle on some of the roller. Had a smile on my face the whole time! What would you do differently?: Had fuel more easily accessible (strap up that tube). Stay down and pedal harder in the areo position, especially with strong headwinds. Keep pedal hits consistent and powerful everytime. Transition 2
Comments: Struggled to dismount - couldn't get left foot out of the shoe. Even lost the shoe, but a spectator helped out. What would you do differently?: Practice dismounting, and getting shoes out at the right time. Run
Comments: Felt awesome after mile 2, overall great brick off the bike and felt good. Nice confidence booster for tri. (Sprints = go all out) What would you do differently?: Go all out toward the finish, or last half mile. Post race
Warm down: Haha, not much. A brief stretch with butt-kicks What limited your ability to perform faster: Sloppy T2, maybe a little more effort on final half of bike and last 5K. Event comments: Nice job 3D. Last updated: 2010-04-06 12:00 AM
