Swim
Comments: Was going to go very easy on the swim because I registered day of the race so put at the end of the line but there were several people behind me. 1st turn guy behind me I guess thought I was a much slower swimmer and swam right over top of me. So I just fell in behind him and followed the wake of destruction he left. Sort of felt sorry for those who had registered slow times and were getting creamed. What would you do differently?: Register early and get time in so I would be with comparable swimmers Transition 1
Comments: could not find my tri shirt so had to put one on in transition cost me some time What would you do differently?: get a tri suit Bike
Comments: Tough ride first 5 miles tough rollers had to climb on every uphill, right turn and 5 mile climb very little down hill, down hill last .8 What would you do differently?: I always say lose weight but I thought I did much better climbing, but still lose weight Transition 2
Comments: Shoe back got stuck down behind my heel but I just ran with it, thought it would come out but never did. Run
Comments: Felt blownup after the bike climbfest but settled into a pretty good pace for me. actually passed another Master Clydesdale, I do not ever remember passing someone I was racing on the run. In fact I really do not ever remember passing anyone on the run period What would you do differently?: not be fat Post race
Warm down: took a shower hung out with the guy who won my class, nice guy What limited your ability to perform faster: fat Event comments: Nice race even the mayor of Warrenton participated on a team. Hope this race continues nice little race. Of course placing for the 1st time ever helped Last updated: 2010-09-19 12:00 AM

Ate an egg biscuit and walked around and talked to people, just used the swim as a warm up since I knew I would be behind slower swimmers because I registered the day of the event.
