![]() Swim
Comments: Swam lots extra, had trouble sighting. Swam in and out of buoys. Rounded last buoy and thought heading to shore, but headed at 45 farther off course. Over compensated and swam almost back to buoy. What would you do differently?: Use smaller goggles. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Seemed slow, but run on beach, up stairs, about 1/4 mile distance. What would you do differently?: Nothing ![]() Bike
Comments: Computer not working, so going by feel. Lost front brakes. Someone opened their car door and almost hit me. Too many people parked on side of the road on the course, so bikes were on one side of cars and runners crammed on other side. What would you do differently?: Practice some before racing. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Racked on wrong rack, then noticed my stuff behind me on next rack. Slowed me down some. Had bandanna in ice water, stuck together. Ripped race number putting on running belt. Wrapped around. What would you do differently?: Find right rack, count them during setup. ![]() Run
Comments: Ran to cone, then walked a cone or so, repeat.... Water on course was warm. could not drink it. Finished strong at least. What would you do differently?: run more in training ![]() Post race
Warm down: Walked around and ate lots. What limited your ability to perform faster: PT on shoulders and resting to help cure them. No practice rides for 2 months and limited running due to travel for 2 months. Event comments: tons of food and drink after race. Nice Goodies in bag. Run course totally lined with cones.
