Swim
  • 05m 3s
  • 250 yards
  • 02m 01s / 100 yards
Comments:

Good swim time for me despite the business and jam ups trying to pass.
Transition 1
  • 00m
Comments:

The T1 time was included in the bike portion of the race from what I can tell. This artifically inflated the time. Fumbled with the gloves and really lost time messing with them.
Bike
  • 24m 50s
  • 6.21 miles
  • 15.00 mile/hr
Comments:

Rode the new road bike and it made a big difference in my time. Think I couldve been even faster were it on a more open path/road.
What would you do differently?:

nothing
Transition 2
  • 00m
Comments:

T2 again included int he run data.
Run
  • 29m 50s
  • 2.1 miles
  • 14m 13s  min/mile
Comments:

Was totally gassed for the first mile. Having the T2 time mixed in with the run made my normally really bad time look abysmal.
What would you do differently?:

keep working on the run.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around. Minimal stretching. Did not sit down so didn't tighten up.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The RUN. UGH.

Event comments:

Was a good race, with lots of volunteers. Didn't like having the bike portion be on the pathway instead of the road. Also did not like that the race timing lumped transition time in with the bike/run. Makes it hard to determine your real pace. Also no finisher medals.
