Ironman 70.3 Florida - Triathlon1/2 Ironman

It was a good swim. Water was murky but it doesn't really matter. Seemed liked a long course though, but they all do :) Seeded myself front row off to the side so I had clear sailing for most of the first leg.

Try to catch a good draft. I couldn't really get on anyone's feet.

I take the extra few seconds to make sure everything is in place - I'll be on the bike for the next 3 hours.

Nothing

Not sure what was wrong. I was tired as soon as I got on the bike. The swim wasn't tough so I don't know what it was. Never did get into a groove. Maybe it was the hills, who knows. I felt better at IMFL than I did here.

Not sure.

Didn't waste too much time here. Could always be faster though.

Nothing

I did not want to run. I was done when I got off the bike. Never felt this way. Yea the first mile is always a little tough but I usually get in a groove. I just couldn't do it. Throughout the whole run I don't think I ran farther than a half mile before walking. I can't blame the heat or the hills. Just a tough day for me.

Not sure.

Grabbed some water and went over to visit the team in the shade. I was going to grab something to drink but the food line was just too long. They needed a separate line for food and a line for just grabbing a drink. My car was close so I went and got some chocolate milk out of the cooler.


I have no idea. I drank, took salt, ate enough. It was bad from the moment I came out of the swim.


I'll go back. Great race for a first time race. Nothing wrong with the course, actually it was pretty good. Great spectators and community support. It was neat seeing the spectators 3 times on the run. Last time around telling them "thanks and we'll see you next year". Other than the food tent it was a great time.
