Swam from the camping spot to the start line on the beach.

This is the longest swim I have ever done without a rest. It was what I expected and know I just need to swim more to get better.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, it was right on with what my ability is.

I love this course, it is hard and fun all at the same time. Rode it cleanly with all the wet roots, rocks, and slick clay.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, except trade the run for one more lap on the bike course.

included in run time.

Comments:

Paced myself pretty well, but it was a long race for me compared to the usual sprint distance so I faded on the second run lap. Had to walk the shortest, but steepest hill, on the course the second lap. Need to work on my longer race endurance. The misting rain on the run made for a nice cooling effect.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, it was a great race for the available time I have for training.
Post race
Warm down:

Hit the food table for a banana, lots of water and Gatorade, and one small foamy beer.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Having a job.

Event comments:

I love off-road racing and Xterra Stoaked is a fantastic time.
