Comments:

I thought my time was going to be a lot better than this. I've been swim-training a lot, I swam the whole way steadily, didn't hyperventilate, breathed bilaterally, and even drafted behind a good pair of feet on the last 200 in.
What would you do differently?:

I don't know :(

Everything was going fine until the 2nd loop of the bike when it started to POUR. I couldn't see a damn thing because I wasn't wearing sunglasses and the rain was stinging my eyes. I had one hand on my bars and one shielding my face from the rain. I'm still happy with my performance, and I know I would have a new PB if it hadn't rained.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing,

Comments:

In the last Lake T race I did I died on the run, so my goal this time was to do better, and I did. I ran up all the hills and concentrated on steady breathing and putting one foot in front of the other. I was able to finish strong, so I'm happy with this run.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Post race
Warm down:

Put on dry clothes and packed up, then off to Panera with C, Rob, and Meredith.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Rain, not being a great swimmer/runner.

Just another night at the Lake!
