none
Swim

  • 547 yards
  • 01m 37s / 100 yards
Comments:

ran into heavy traffic by the first turn bouy and spent the rest of the swim working my way through the crowd.
What would you do differently?:

need to work on awareness of other swimmers and not just focus on the bouys so I can select better lines and avoid congestion without having to make so many adjustments.
Transition 1
  • 02m 11s
Comments:

had a little trouble getting the suit off over the giant timing chip. otherwise ok.
Bike
  • 41m 37s
  • 15 miles
  • 21.63 mile/hr
Comments:

took a while to get up to speed but pretty much cruised the rest of the way. the exception was about a 10 minute stretch where the marshall inexplicably putted along in the passing lane just ahead of me. I hereby assess a 2-minute blocking penalty.
Transition 2
  • 01m 1s
Comments:

with the rack position I had, I should have been in and out a little quicker. not sure what the delay was.
Run
  • 22m 50s
  • 3.11 miles
  • 07m 20s  min/mile
Comments:

I think this is my fastest run split in a sprint. I'll take it.
Post race
Warm down:

talked to the fast guys and waited forever for transition to open up to get some things.

Event comments:

nice race! thanks again.
