 Swim
Comments: I know I was fastest in my AG but that's just because we're all poor swimmers any other race we would get murdered. I need to work on this segment. Granted I've only been swimming for 3 months in need to get I the 1:50 range to be happy. What would you do differently?: Swim more without aids (fins, PB)  Transition 1
Comments: I had trouble snapping my chin strap, but other than that t-1 went pretty smooth, keep in mind this was a reverse so things were a little different. What would you do differently?: Work on snapping helmet a little more.  Bike
Comments: I had a really good ride, I knew when we got to the turn around and I saw my average speed at 23.5 MPH I knew coming back was going to be a test I just geared up one and tried to get as small as I could. The flags at the golf course were moving but it was swirling so we had mostly head and crosswinds coming back. Coming up the hill I told myself just to push as hard as possible and then make it up in the last mile. I pretty much followed Eric the whole time I passed him once and he passed me back about a mile later, other than passing some one in my AG right off the bat that was it, drafting wasn't bad at all from what I could see everyone kept a respectable distance. What would you do differently?: Push a little harder Transition 2
Comments: Reverse once again so this was bike to swim, my legs were only a little jellied I dropped one of my ear plugs and had to pick it up. Other than that I need to work on just leaving the shoes on the bike and just jumping off. I grabbed one more swig off water and was off. What would you do differently?: Practice leaving shoes on the pedals.  Run
Comments: Best pace I have ran over three miles yet, I thought I was pushing it a little bit but I felt good and just went with it. Ran with Eric pretty much the whole time, we thought about trying to catch Tim but decided against it. I pushed up the hill a little harder than Eric and beat him into transition. What would you do differently?: In hind site I probably could have ran a little harder but not enough to have made it matter. Post race
Warm down: Had a banana and a water and walked around with Tucker. What limited your ability to perform faster: My swim needs more work. Event comments: Had a fun race and a really good one, I will defiantly do this one again. Last updated: 2013-03-21 12:00 AM

Woke up at 6:00 am had a cup of coffee and a protein shake. Made sure I had everything and left for the pool. Once I got to the pool I realized I forgot my garmin so I had to run home thankfully it's only a 1/4 mile away. I set up my transition next to Tim and Eric which worked out well. Checked in got marked and then went outside to warm up.
Jogged around the parking lot for about 20 minutes and stretched.
