Swim
Comments: Overall, I was happy with the swim. I cut over four minutes off last year's time. I felt stong and my breathing was good. I had trouble sighting. The lake was muddy due to heavy rain the night before. I got off course rounding the last bouy. I had to stop, remove my goggles, and get back on course. What would you do differently?: Make sure I clean my goggles well before the race. Not sure this would make that much of a difference since the lake was muddy, but it could only help. Transition 1
Comments: Happy with T1. Bike
Comments: This is a fast bike course. I avg 20 mph on the bike for the first time. Cut over five minutes off last year's time. However, still was passed often. Still, I was happy with the bike performace. What would you do differently?: Out the three legs, this is where I can improve the most. I need to work on using the larger gears during down hills and flats. I hardly use them now. I mostly use the smaller gears. I'm leaving a lot of time out there by not using the larger gears. Need to practice using those larger gears. Transition 2
Comments: I purchased lace lock shoe laces and they worked very well. Saved me a lot of time in T2. Run
Comments: Cut nearly one minute off last year's time. It took me a little bit of time to get my legs under me. Overall, I am happy with the run. What would you do differently?: Practice more often on tired legs. Post race
Event comments: Good race. A lot of volunteers to help. Last updated: 2010-08-23 12:00 AM
