Pre-race routine:

I got theere an hour early. Parked and carried all my gear, then realized I could have parked closer. I didn't eat breakfast at home this time and took some granola to munch on during the pre race meeting. I drank 16 oz of water about 1/2 hour before the start. Downed a gu drank a little more water to wash it down.
Event warmup:

streching, brisk walking. I got to swim one lap to warm up this time. That was nice.

Post race
Warm down:

walked and stretched.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I had a cold and my breathing was a little labored. I think most of my problem is mental thinking I am going to hurt myself.

Event comments:

The transition area and the course starts were a bit jumbled and hard to figure out without race volunteers telling me where to go. The bike course had markings but they were too close to the corners for the speed. I found I had to slow down to figure out where to go and there weren't markings at every intersection.
