Swim
Comments: no one to draft with so I just went easy. Really muddy and gross water. Transition 1
Comments: so much better than the last 1. I didn't fall off my bike. What would you do differently?: need to learn to run with bike but overall I didn't give up a bunch of time here. Bike
Comments: very frustrated with this leg. I really wish all that training made me faster here. the first half of the first loop I had difficulty settling. My legs were tight and breathing was labored. What would you do differently?: I honestly don't know. Just keep biking? Buy a tri bike? Transition 2
Comments: need to learn to dismount from moving bike. Run
Comments: should have been a 5k but it was clearly short. How short is my guess. I'd guess 2.2 - 2.5 miles. I had way too much left in the tank at the end. So mad that I had that much left. What would you do differently?: I need to get up and go. Post race
Warm down: walked around and hugged family What limited your ability to perform faster: dream race, longer swim shorter run :) Event comments: I don't know that I will do this race again. The short run is almost unforgivable. There's just no reason I can think of that they would do that. The lake is really gross. I've done a lot more open swimming since last year and this is just not a pleasant swim with the thick mud and algae. Last updated: 2015-03-11 12:00 AM

Woke up at 6 coffee en route. At 2/3 of chocolate muffin before warm up.
8:30 swam for 10 minutes out and around the bouys and practiced picking up the last bouy on my way in.
