 Swim
Comments: Got beat up very bad and even swam against a guy who was wearing paddles on his hands what a jerk, I was all over this guy once I noticed what he was doing. What would you do differently?: Try not to start with wave that has relays also.  Transition 1
Comments: Slow transition wetsuit at heals to shoes not going on easy then it took atleast 3 minutes to get hooked in What would you do differently?: more practice and baby powder shoes  Bike
Comments: passed all but one that I stayed with challenging eachother the whole way. What would you do differently?: more practice clipping in and adjust tightness of clips as I came out on the way out chasing my challenger. Also pass as Dave said get up on someone before going around this way getting a little advantage drafting for a while. In other words don't ride way left to pass everyone. Transition 2
Comments: Still ahve not master pedaling on top of shoes and so when I popped out of clips I was moving right along and when I cowboyed off I slipped as I was hitting the brakes for the bike it came up and I slipped hard onto my left buttocks. What would you do differently?: Must learn to pedal on top of pedals.  Run
Comments: Stayed motivated and talked to alot of people and kept the pace. Ran good never got passed until coming down the hill by 868 a 42 year old tall blonde arian nation dude...and then about 1/2 mile out a hot chick about 34 or so passed me. What would you do differently?: run more hills. Post race
Warm down: not much What limited your ability to perform faster: swim I got beat up, clipping on bike, transitons were slow. Event comments: Well organized considering how many were there, fun especially the run. Last updated: 2006-04-18 12:00 AM

Got up at 4 am and took a shower then had a boiled egg and toast loaded bike and went to firestation to get my wetsuit. Got a coke there for the race and had a peice of left over french bread and 1/2 cup old coffee.
Biked with Dave out to all but 3 miles of the route. Then got in the water about 20 minutes early and swam and stayed in until my wave moved up and then swam to the start point.
