Event warmup:

Walked bike from Parking area to transition. Not a short walk due to limited parking. Warmed up in transition with short runs and stretches.

Comments:

Totally blew the swim. This is really my first triathlon. Went out too fast and panicked and couldn't recover.
What would you do differently?:

Get more open water practice. Not get caught up in the "race" so early or quickly.
Transition 1
  • 02m 54s
Comments:

There was a pretty good distance between the bike and the transition exit adding to the time. I did sit down to put on socks and shoes. Overall, I was pleased with this transition
What would you do differently?:

Not drop my helmet on the other side of the rack.

Comments:

Thought I did a little better than the time says. Planned to go hard but hold back on the out, new the in would be mostly downhill. Really tried to go fast on the way back. Thought I stuck to the plan.
Transition 2
  • 01m 8s
Comments:

Didn't need to change shoes. Thought this transition went as well as it could. Calves did try to cramp so was a little slow getting to run timer.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Run
  • 22m 29s
  • 2 miles
  • 11m 14s  min/mile
Comments:

Again, thought I went a little faster than time says. Calves did cramp at the beginning, I had to stop and stretch. Kept a good steady pace throughout and ended strong.
Post race
Warm down:

Gatorade, stretching, and pizza.

Event comments:

Definitely a good race to start the year for me. Gives me something to build on. Would be good race for first timers in general.
