Swim
Comments: I started at the back of the pack and had to slow down waiting for everybody. Finally, I just turned on the gas and started passing everybody. I could have knocked 2 minutes off my time. What would you do differently?: Don't start in the back. Transition 1
Comments: There was a run transition and I did not want to risk running without shoes on concrete. I took my sweet time as you can see. What would you do differently?: Get organized, move faster, put compression socks on before swim. Bike
Comments: First time on a tri bike and I felt comfortable. I was trying to conserve for the run. I could have pushed harder. What would you do differently?: Need to train more on the tri bike. My legs felt like someone pumped them with air by the time I got to the run. I was dying. Transition 2
Comments: No I didn't stop for a beer, but I might as well have done so. I took my time and probably should not have. What would you do differently?: Keep moving. Run
Comments: I was unable to run at first as my legs where blown up from the bike. When I finally hit the porto potty I was in heaven. What would you do differently?: Run through the discomfort. Post race
Warm down: Massage it was great. What limited your ability to perform faster: Never rode the bike before the event. First time in a aero position Event comments: I actually shaved 1 hour off my time from 2005. I was pleased with the effort and will use this as a building block to better things.
