Pre-race routine:

Not so good. I couldn't get my packet on Friday because I had a swim meet so I had to wait in a long line to pick up my packet in the morning. I like having lots of time before my race to walk around and talk to my friends. I hate it when I feel rushed. Mom says I need to just go with the flow sometimes. Anyhow, I ate oatmeal and drank some Propel.
Event warmup:

Swam out to the first buoy(almost) and back.

  • 01m 30s / 100 yards
Comments:

I had a really good swim. I got to go off in the first wave so I didn't have to pass a lot of people. The water was perfect and I felt great.
What would you do differently?:

nothing
Transition 1
  • 01m 20s
Comments:

I threw up in transition again, right in my bike shoe. Slowed me down a little but not too bad.
What would you do differently?:

Try not to barf.
Bike

Comments:

This is one of my favorite bike courses. I felt really good on the bike and was able to stay aero most of the time. I had a girl that kept drafting off me though. I could feel someone back there but I didn't want to turn around and look. When I made the turn around I saw who it was and I tried to keep her off me going back in. I was really mad when I saw she beat my bike split by like 30 seconds.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing really, I had a pretty good bike.
Transition 2
  • 01m 1s
Comments:

I had a pretty good transition.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing really
Run
  • 21m 3s
  • 2.6 miles
  • 08m 06s  min/mile
Comments:

I ran the whole thing, so I was pretty happy about that. I was surprised when I saw how fast my run was.
What would you do differently?:

I need to learn to run a little faster. My mom said I was shuffling, so I need to open up my stride.
Post race
Warm down:

I just walked around and talked to my friends. This was the first race of the series that I did, so I hadn't seen my friends since October. It was really cool to see everyone again.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing except my light training.

Event comments:

I love Publix Family Fitness Weekend races. They are fun, the awards are cool and I get to see my friends. Can't wait for Ft. Lauderdale!
