Pre-race routine:

Up at five. Ate a bagel with peanut butter & a banana. Felt pretty calm.
A lot of walking through transition area, making sure I knew where to come in and out for each event, counted rows and racks.
Event warmup:

No real warmup.
Swim
  • 20m 17s
  • 750 meters
  • 02m 42s / 100 meters
Comments:

Felt good through the whole swim. My goal was to not have to flip on to my back and I didn't. I freestyled the majority of the swim with a few breast strokes to sight. There was no panic at all--managed it all very well.
What would you do differently?:

Push a little harder.

Run

  • 3.11 miles
  • 09m 29s  min/mile
Comments:

Run was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I felt like I was barely moving so I was pleased to see I still ran under a 10 minute mile, even with the hills. Felt like my legs really didn't get going until 2.5 miles into it. It was hot...dumped water on my head at both water stations.
What would you do differently?:

Push harder!
Post race
Warm down:
