![]() Swim
Comments: Water was very cold and I would use a full wetsuit next time. Used 2 regular swim caps and my head was perfectly warm. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Hands were very cold after the swim and it was very hard to hold onto anything. Made putting on socks very difficult. ![]() Bike
Comments: Pretty happy with the ride. Need more riding in the hills, though. Altitude definitely had some effect on me. Passed several people. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Not sure why this took so long. Did switch from bike jersey to running singlet. What would you do differently?: Stick with one shirt for the duration of the race. Practice T1 and T2! ![]() Run
Comments: I'm an awful runner but not this worst this day! What would you do differently?: Run more in training and do more big bike>run blocks. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Stretching--hydrating--eating What limited your ability to perform faster: Not enough run training. Pure and simple. Need to do more training in every discipline. Event comments: Beautiful course! The bike ride was simply stunning. I'm happy to have beaten my 70.3 time from Austin last year. I beat that time by roughly 40 minutes in much colder water and a much hillier (and 2 miles longer) bike ride. Will probably return in 2012. Last updated: 2011-02-17 12:00 AM
