Swim
Comments: This was probably not a true 1/2 mile swim. I felt the best at this part of the race. My Hubby had my shoes out so I could put them on after the swim which saved my feet!!! We had to run up a gravel like ramp that continued to the transition area!! So I was able to run up to the transition area. What would you do differently?: Warm-up! Transition 1
Comments: Could improve. Need to practice. Bike
Comments: I was not ready for the hills. I made it through but it was rough. The first couple of miles felt like it took forever and for awhile I thought my bike odometer was wrong because it took me so long. I really took advantage of the down hill to help me get up some of the up hill. My max speed (downhill) 39.9 mph! I'm glad I didn't hit any potholes! What would you do differently?: Work on shorter hill rides or I was told that I could sprint up a hill and then go down and do that a couple of times. The only "hill" where I live is the overpass so I might have to go to the next town over on weekends. Transition 2
Comments: I don't know this time because I had problems with my watch. Run
Comments: I flet good. A little cramping in the left leg. Had to stretch. I ran the last mile!! I was happy with the time especially because the course was hilly and I only have ran around town and it is FLAT! My running workouts did help. What would you do differently?: Need to incorporate more running into my training. Post race
Warm down: Walking around. Event comments: I hope to do this race next year so I can see how much I can improve on my running and biking. This is definately the hardest tri I have done so far. Next year I will do it under 2min!! Last updated: 2007-06-11 12:00 AM
