Swim
Comments: Water felt great. Pace felt good. My googles were fogged and sighting was kind of hard. I ended up swimming way outside the line which probably added some time to my swim. What would you do differently?: I need to buy some foggle bad. Transition 1
Comments: Easy and quick What would you do differently?: cant ask for anything better than I did Bike
Comments: Bad storms the night before, lots of puddles, but overall dry course. Extrememly rough. I felt beat up after the ride. I have done this course twice on my road bike, feels so much worse on a tri bike. I was pretty happy with my ride this time on my tri bike compared to my last race. I feel like I am finally getting used to it. What would you do differently?: Push a bit harder my first lap. I held up a bit to see how I felt. Transition 2
Comments: another smooth transition What would you do differently?: I may need to start talking off my garmin and putting in on my wrist band as I ride up to transition. Run
Comments: suprised myself. Came out of transition around 8 30 pace and thought I was going way to fast. I had planned to try to run around 9 15 and pick up as I felt. After drinking too much on the bike I was sloshing though, which I think stopped me from going faster. Several burps which felt like they were going to be a little more than just a burp! What would you do differently?: Drink less. I paced it pretty good though. Not get a blister! more body glide between toes. Post race
Warm down: water water water and some pretzels. What limited your ability to perform faster: traning. Pure and simple, but this was a great race for me. Event comments: 3rd year to do this race, last 2 years I have just done the sprint. Well planned and run race. Its always on my list. Plus this was the State Regoinal Championship. No wonder I felt slow, even though I was more or less PRing at this distance for me. Last updated: 2012-06-03 12:00 AM
