 Swim
Comments: Just not sure what my issue is with tri swims. I know I am not a sprinter and had no warm up today, but my workout swims are so much faster. I really need to figure this out. Frustrating! What would you do differently?: Swim faster!!  Transition 1
Comments: Had a little problem getting my shoes on, but went sockless again and it seemed to go pretty well.  Bike
Comments: I had no idea where I was riding (time wise) since I was riding with no comp/watch. I felt strong, but I had remembered this course being flat so it was a little harder than I thought it would be. And the speed bumps through the neighborhood killed me. But, had I known I was barking at the 19mph door I may have been jazzed to push it a little more. There was a guy out there that was not happy about getting chicked. We played leap frog several times and after my final pass he drafted off me for quite a while (I tried slowing down and speeding up - nothing worked). I've got his #, so I'll get his name and be on the lookout for him in the future. What would you do differently?: lose the guy Transition 2
 Run
Comments: Ran with no watch, but did carry a water bottle in case I had issues on the course. I felt like I was scooting kinda slow up the hills, but it is where my body was. What would you do differently?: The last two races I have gone with no comp/watch and it has been interesting. Next race I will wear a watch and see how that goes. Post race
Warm down: Just hung out. Met up with Doug - I really enjoy hanging out at races with him - and waited for the awards ceremony. What limited your ability to perform faster: This is the third weekend in a row that I've raced and between that and the kids out for the summer I'm tired. Next race is in a month and it's an Olympic - yea! Event comments: Rebecca and Finish Strong are awesome. I love the Finish Strong races!!! Rebecca has done a great job with this race. I've done it all 4 years, and it's a good race that raises a lot of money for the SmileTrain. Great race, great charity! Last updated: 2011-06-01 12:00 AM

Nothing. I was running so late, it was just a matter of getting there, racking my bike and getting in the pool.
Today I was going with no bike comp/watch to just go with how I felt.
None. Got my bike racked and set up my stuff, then went to the pool to jump in. As I stuck my little toe in the pool the RD looked at me as she announced "clear the pool". Guess any type of warm up just wasn't going to happen.
