Pre-race routine:

My son was nice enough to wake me up at 2am so that I would have plenty of time to get ready. Pulled into the race site at about 5:45 which was still early enough to get a good spot in the TA
Event warmup:

Just did a short out and back running.

Comments:

Dissapointed with the swim, but it's my own fault for letting the training go.
What would you do differently?:

Get to the pool more.

Comments:

The bike course is very fast and I felt really good so I pushed hard.
What would you do differently?:

Push a little less hard & save a little for the run.

Comments:

Uneventful T2
Run
  • 18m 28s
  • 2.5 miles
  • 07m 23s  min/mile
Comments:

I had nothing left for the run. My legs felt fine but I just couldn't get my breathing under control. I ran the entire run portion with a breathing rate like I sprinting to the finish. I guess I should just be happy that my time wasn't even uglier.
What would you do differently?:

Save a little more off the bike.
Post race
Warm down:

After the race we grilled out in the park and had a few beers while they were doing awards and give aways.

Event comments:

This was my 2nd time doing this race and it'll definitely be one that I'll be back to.
