 Swim
Comments: I basically put this in crusie control for the entire swim. I went comfortable and my pace. I passed soem of the stragglers from teh third wave, but for the most part, I just swam a leisurely pace, and concentrated on breathing and nice long strokes. Absolutely did not try hard at all. What would you do differently?: Not a damn thing  Transition 1
Comments: Again, I didn't go super fast. Just got through the T1 and got ready for a long ride. What would you do differently?: Not Much....  Bike
Comments: I split this up into 18 mile increments. The first 18 was done as easy as possible, with slight notches up in pace here and there. The second and third parts were done with a bit more intensity, and I started really dropping some of the people who probably had went a bit too hard too early. I drank ONE perpetuem bottle 6 gels, a banana, and at least 80-90 ounces of water. What would you do differently?: Nothing Transition 2
Comments: Again, I didn't go too fast. I also had to go to the john for about a minute and a half. What would you do differently?: Wear depends.  Run
Comments: It was hot and I had a hard time keeping my HR down. It really wore on me and it felt impossible to pick up teh pace. I tried at around mile 7 to star to ratchet it up, it backfired and led to worse times around miles 10-12. What would you do differently?: I don't really know. I did great in my pacing on tehe swim and bike, but teh run always gets to me. I felt great through mile 8, but I felt really degraded after that. Post race
Warm down: Walked around and met with other Triple Threat members. Had water, gatorade, and packed my stuff up and went home. What limited your ability to perform faster: Heat and my run. Event comments: I really liked this and will do it again next year. Last updated: 2006-04-20 12:00 AM

Got up, had a bagel, a banana, Juice, and a coffee. Had all my stuff ready the night before, and bike racked too.
I ran for about 10 minutes, and did some strides. Got teh HR up and then cooled off and stretched. Got my wetsuit on and swam. I stayed in teh water a good 25 minutes. I watched the first two waves start off from the water. Felt good.
