Swim
Comments: googles started leaking, but did not bother me to much or so I thought. going under lane lines seemed to make things slow Took Gu pack What would you do differently?: I would try and relax more and work on my breathing I felt really tight and could not find my rythm in the water. Was not getting a xmooth long pull. Transition 1
Comments: Need to learn to get on and off bike faster and also put shoes on while already on bike Had problem getting first foot clipped in What would you do differently?: pushed harder in the trans area. Learn to get on bike faster Bike
Comments: I felt that I should have pushed myself more on teh bike. I was really trying to stay consistant and not surge. I think because I did this I found the race to be easier. Ave was up so I am happy about that. Took Excel pack What would you do differently?: WOuld have liked to climed the continuous hills at a faster cadence Transition 2
Comments: legs a little shacking before running but felt fine after the first few steps. Shoes went on good with the powder. What would you do differently?: Need to pick up more of the tech skills to make the trans faster Run
Comments: Again trying to stay consistant. Feet felt fine with no socks. Mind started to wonder. Ran was over before I new it. I had alot of kick at the end.maybe almost to much What would you do differently?: Push myself alittle more Post race
Warm down: Did not need much a a cool down. I recovered really fast. Had a recovery drink What limited your ability to perform faster: I am not really for such. My trying really hard to stay consistant. Maybe my mind was not there to hurt that day. I know I could have pushed my self more I have done it dozens of times before. I was alittle disappionted that I did not feel as if I pushed myself as usual Event comments: This race was very disorganized. They never stuck to a distance until the day of the race. Transitions were long, beginning of bike course dangerous.They put way to may turns on parking lots and the run did not have helpers at main intersections with hig traffic Last updated: 2006-05-11 12:00 AM
