What would you do differently?: Train!  Transition 1
 Bike
Comments: started out bad, got better, then got worse. spent too much time adjusting stuff, shoe straps, gel packs, sunglasses. Once I got in a rythym I was cooking around 21-24 on all the flats. then it all went wrong. I made a stupid gear change and dropped my chain. It took me longer than it should have to get it back on and I couldnt' get my rythym back agfter that. I rolled back into the park at around 16-17 mph and it really slowed down my average What would you do differently?: train more! Should have tried to make adjustments to the headset after I realized how tight it had gotten last night. Quit fiddleing with everything and find a consistent pace Transition 2
 Run
Comments: too sloshy going into the run. cramps the first 2 miles. I could never get any air. Flet like I was breathing marshmallows.I was soooo tired I thought I would fall asleep. Not my lungs or even my legs, although they were tired, too but my whole self was just really really tired. What would you do differently?: spend a lot more time practicing bike to run nutrition and bricks that are more than a 2 mile run after a 50 mile ride. I never runlong enough after my rides. get more sleep! Post race
Warm down: drank a beer. go home. What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of proper training for this distance. really gutsy of me to think I should do this race with so little distance training. I honestly thought that enough miles on the bike and run would do the job but I guess when you do them separately, it still doesn' cut it Event comments: I was DQ and I have no idea why. None. I was up all night thinking through every minute of the race and I can't hink of a legitimate reason. I am really ticked off about all the time penalties they gave to the rest of our club. 5 out of 8 members of our club got thier first ever penalty and I got DQ. what gives?

slept like total crap last night. Too many people in a room. It was fun sharing with all the girls but I am too muich of an insomniac to have the added pressure of keeping everyone else up. I would be surprised if I slept 3 hours.
Peanut butter, bread and coffee.
got there later than I wanted due to a traffic reroute. this put me behind in the warm-up.
short run, even shorter swim
