Post race
Warm down:

Walk around the vendors and smile at everyone I see.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The failure to meet the demands that I was confronted with...granted that it was the first time, I still couldn't step up except for the bike leg, and that slowed down because I put the thought in my head that I needed food.

Event comments:

Certainly one wishes that some outdoor carpet went down the transition area. And Publix vendors weren't what I'd been led to expect. The race however was all I could expect for the first time and the lifeguards are the ones that got me back into the race for which I'm profoundly grateful.
