Swim
Comments: I finished first in the swim in my wave by well over 3 minutes. That was a shocker for sure. I had a really slow wave. It was the last wave of the day, and we were allowed to sign up for any time that we wanted to. What would you do differently?: I would try to draft more as I pass people. That comes with time though. I haven't had the opportunity to draft much in my pool when I do workouts because often I am the only one there or else the person beside me is way too good for me to even try to follow. Transition 1
Run
Comments: The top three places were all in the same wave and they finished within 11 seconds of each other. I was only 17 seconds away from winning the whole race. I felt like I ran pretty strong. Felt a sideache after peaking a big hill, but it eventually subsided. The water stations didn't have water. What would you do differently?: I would have pressed harder on the downhill portion and during the long straightaway before the finish. Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Not having anyone there to push me. I finished 15 minutes ahead of the second place person in my wave. Event comments: I liked the race but the finish was very anticlimatic. My first biathlon. Not too bad of a start to my multisport racing career. The shirt is awesome!
