Swim
Comments: I've heard of a mythical current for this race, but didn't feel it. At least it didn't push me to the finish as I had expected it to. My time was what I expected, and I was able to keep my head down and swim the whole time. Form wasn't the best, but I kept at it. What would you do differently?: Now that I am comfortable in the open water, I need to focus on form and going faster. Transition 1
Comments: It's a decent hike from the river to T1, so the time wasn't too bad. What would you do differently?: Still takes me a bit to get my head straight after getting out of the water. Need to pick up the pace. Bike
Comments: This was tough. The hills weren't incredibly steep, but they were long. What would you do differently?: I wasn't prepared for the hills. I had expected to do much better than this, but I think I put everything I had into it. I'll need to spend much more time in the saddle, and I'm also going to start back lifting to get my leg strength up. I had problems getting to large cog in the front. My bike sucks and I need to get a new one. Transition 2
Comments: I had a great spot near the bike in/out, but they made be go around to get to it. Still it was a straight jog and easy to find. What would you do differently?: I did well on this. Run
Comments: Not a bad course, but my legs weren't having it. I should have been able to run much faster, but legs were tired from the bike. It was pretty hot, which always slows me down. What would you do differently?: I need to do harder bricks. Staying in a tougher gear for longer, then running hard. Post race
Warm down: Nothing special. Event comments: Good race, but I will need to prepare more next year. Last updated: 2010-06-26 12:00 AM

Went to diner in hotel for cheerios.
Pretty much wandering around for a couple of hours waiting to swim.
