Pre-race routine:

Up at 5:30. Had two pieces of peanut butter toast. Drank a 12oz gatorade. Used the restroom. J and I loaded the car and we left by 6:25. At race site by 6:35. Setup transition area and got marked up

Swim
  • 08m 17s
  • 400 meters
  • 02m 04s / 100 meters
Comments:

Swim was tough. I need to spend more time focusing on my swim. I feel like if I can get in the water more I should be able to reduce my time by 45 seconds.
What would you do differently?:

Swim more.
Transition 1
  • 01m 10s
Comments:

Good transition. Had a little trouble getting my bike out. Overall I am happy with it.
What would you do differently?:

Make sure my bike is setup up so I can get it out easily

Comments:

Good ride. I was a full mph higher this year. Played leap frog with 2 other guys for most of the race. I think I maybe had a little left in me and could have pushed harder.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe push a little harder. Trying to find the balance between the bike and run is always a challenge for me.
Transition 2
  • 01m 19s
Comments:

Good transition. Running on the shells/gravel to get to the transition area is always interesting.
What would you do differently?:

Try to shave about 10 seconds off the transition.
Run
  • 22m 11s
  • 3.2 miles
  • 06m 56s  min/mile
Comments:

Good run. Goal was to be under 7min and closer to 6:45. I think I need to push myself a little harder in the run.
What would you do differently?:

Train harder, push myself harder in the race
Post race
Warm down:

Nothing really. Cheered for some of the other athletes. Met up with family. Had a bagel and apple

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Swim training and mental toughness on the run.

Event comments:

I really enjoy this race. They do a great job with it every year. It's even better when J, Lyn, Camryn, and Kierstyn are in town for the race. Looking forward to next year when I break 1 hour!!!
