 Swim
Comments: Got up to the front of the line on the far right.. Was able to stay clear of others. My wave 19-39 was the first to go.. Got off to a good start with really nobody around me.. Was able to get into a pretty good rhythm still only feel comfortable breathing on my left side..Overall I felt like I had a good swim was unable to train as much in the water due to work.. What would you do differently?: Just continue to work on my swim and bi-lateral breathing.. Work on drills this off season and hope to see big improvements.  Transition 1
Comments: Set bike up in the first row close to the bike out.. Was a straight line out of the water to my bike.. Sunglasses,helmet,shoes on with no problem.. Ran to bike out, mounted and was gone.. What would you do differently?: Need to do some drills with the shoes already clipped in and see how I do..  Bike
Comments: This was my first race with the TT bike I borrowed.. Overall had a great ride was able to maintain a great pace...Got slowed down a few times by cars due to this not being a closed course.. The cars caused me to have to pass them when it was clear..( not fun) What would you do differently?: There is always room for improvement...Just continue to get seat time a push myself to get faster.. Transition 2
Comments: Got off my bike and one shoe came unclipped with any hesitation I kept going. Decided to go sock less. Racked the bike,shoes on, and put visor and race number on while running out of T2. What would you do differently?: Learn to get off the bike better while it is moving..  Run
Comments: Had a good run for me was able to get my pace down each mile according to my Garmin..I was able to push myself for the last 1.5 miles.. Overall I fell into a good pace, had some stomach pain but was able to push through it. Had one hammer gel at the beginning of the room.. What would you do differently?: Just continue to work on my run drills where hopefully I can get my total run time down to a 7 min mile one day.. can't complain because I have improved each event.. Post race
Warm down: Just did some stretching..Had some water, banana and a cliff bar..Chilled out with some friends and watch some other participants finish the race.. What limited your ability to perform faster: Had a slight cold but was able to push through all stages of the event with no problems.. Had some stomach issues but I think it was from the cold meds.. Event comments: Overall this is a great place to hold a race... I just think they need to find a way to closed the bike course to traffic.. There are some blind spots on the bike leg and with the cars could be dangerous.. Last updated: 2010-08-07 12:00 AM
