 Swim
Comments: This was a good swim for me. I think the course may have been a bit long-ish because all of the times were a bit slow. Maybe the people were just slow swimmers though. Anyways, I kept up better than usual and was very happy with that! What would you do differently?: Keep up my pace from the first 100 the whole way.  Transition 1
Comments: I was a bit slow compared to others here but that was the additional 5 seconds or so taking my suit off. Negligible time loss for me. What would you do differently?: Go faster.  Bike
Comments: First: I have to apologize to the 50 or so people that I endangered by riding on the right side of the road. I never heard this instruction in the race meeting and I rode head-on into HUGE groups of people. I am very sorry if I did anything to harm anyone. Second: I think this course suited me perfectly. I have a good position on my bike and was able to take advantage of the high speeds. What would you do differently?: Not ride in the oncoming lane. (Totatlly unintentional!!!!) Transition 2
Comments: It's T2. Nothing exciting happened.  Run
Comments: I think the course needs to change. There were runners on the bike course. That is very dangerous. Some people just aren't that aware of their surroundings. I hope this gets changed in the future. Otherwise it was a good run. Nice little trek through the woods. What would you do differently?: Push harder. Post race
Warm down: I grabbed my stuff out of transition and got the heck outta there. We had to get home so I could go to the parade with Jennie and the kids. Event comments: I only give it a 4 because the course has some areas that IMO are dangerous. Other than that, as usual, RDE does an excellent job! Last updated: 2012-07-11 12:00 AM

Woke at 3:30 (Actually 2:30 because my son was up and wouldn't fall back to sleep. Thankfully my WONDERFUL wife took care of him so I could sleep a bit more) Ate some toast, Java and headed out at about 4:30. I picked up my dad and we headed to the park.
I jogged for about 10 min to familiarize myself with the course. I was in wave 6 so I waited until the first waves went before I got in the water to warm-up there. I did probably 10 minutes of swimming.
