Event warmup:

Race was backwards, Run, Bike, Swim. Kind of freaked out because my pump broke, but I thought my tire was flat so I frantically changed my back tire then as I went to pump it out realized it was my pump. So after I got that fixed felt better, and then just set up area.

Comments:

Swim time included T2 which was a pretty big run after the bike. After the bike my arms were just dead when i got in the pool, also from being outside to going inside the pool area was wicked hot. Swam as fast as I could but i was dead, had to do breast stroke a couple of times because of all the people.
What would you do differently?:

More swimming in training. Its been a while, need to get back into it.

Comments:

Bike went well after the run, legs felt pretty good, overall went as fast as I could, havn't been out on the roads at all since last summer have been on a trainer all winter so it was good to get back on the road.
What would you do differently?:

Bike more on the road in the winter whenever I can, so i need to get winter bike stuff. Not drink crappy peach gatorade which made me sick after the swim, stick with water.
