Warm down:

I drink gatorade and after 20 minutes I went at the massage tent and receive a wonderful leg and showder massage.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My swim is realy bad so I will have to take courses and maybe a swim camp. It will help me I think.

Event comments:

The information about the race and the race road was bad. I check on web site for map in all sports and when I arrived the day of the race, the road was not the same as the web site. A lot of people was upset. The transition road was difficult to learn. They didn't give t-shirt or medals to all the competitor so we didn't have souvenir of that event. Special a bit for a big event like that. It was, in same time, a place to qualify for the 70.3 world championship for 2010. The first 10 people was qualify for the world championship.
