Swim seemed long. I think it was because that's not my normal pace and I felt like I was pretty strong throughout. The huge mass of people all swimming at the same time was pure chaos. Pretty interesting! I lost my goggles in transition. I thought I had them, but I've gone through all of my stuff twice with no luck... Too bad, I liked those goggles.

Install GPS tracker on goggles.

No socks this time. Went pretty fast due to that. Also, we had to stuff all of our swim gear in a bag, so that took time.

Wow, those hills were killer. I'm really surprised I was able to maintain 18mph! I'm guessing on the downhills I must have gone supersonic speeds in order to average out the dawdling that was the uphill climbs :) Still felt good by the finish.

Get my power up. Need to go faster to place in races.

Long transition area. Went pretty fast. No socks with my shoes.

Wow, this was a hilly run. Really tested my lungs and legs. I kept pace with a guy in my age group for just about the whole race so I could motivate myself not to slow down. Sprinted past him at the end to get 4th place. It was a pretty good fight to the finish. Really strong.

Huff and Puff.


I think I just need to train more so I can get my lungs and legs more efficient/powerful. Bike Upgrade might help :)


I liked this race a lot. Mostly because I feel such a sense of accomplishment (it being my first Olympic therefore my longest race). I liked that they had live finishing times. The tech guy in me was impressed. :)
