Pre-race routine:

Got up at 3:30 am to eat and drive the 2 hrs to the race. Got there with plenty of time. Got to figure out how to dirve a Mustang across a rutted field. I'm glad my hubby wasn't there he would of had a fit about taking his baby cross country :)

Set up in trans and went to check out the water. Swam for about 5-10 min

Comments:

I had a kind of slow for me swim. I felt good but keep getting caught in traffic and I'm trying to stop giving way all the time but it is hard when the folks keep swimmming on you. But I was OK with my time and the longish run to trans.
What would you do differently?:

Not run into the walking guy.

Good bike, kept it in the big ring about 90% of the time. And was in the Areeo bars for about 80% of the time. Felt great and passed alot of people. only got passed by the really fast folks. Over all I am very happy with my bike.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Transition 2
  • 02m 39s
Comments:

Had a little diffaculty racking my bike due to having so many bike on the rack and having moautain bikes on both sides of me. Their handle bars were kind of in the way and I didn't want to knock them off the rack or any thing. Not the bikers fault just alot of bike/little room
What would you do differently?:

Not try to stand on one foot with my bike shoes on. Balance not good.
Run
  • 37m 33s
  • 3.11 miles
  • 12m 04s  min/mile
Comments:

I did not have a good run I couldn't get my HR down and I just had no energy. And I really wanted to push it but just could not seem to get into a pace. I have been having a prob. with my running. and my times seem to be going the wrong direction. I have to figure out what I am doing wrong. Have gone in a year to running 9:30 min/mi to the 11:00-12:00 min/mi
What would you do differently?:

Maybe more bike/ run brick. and more speed work.
Post race
Warm down:

drank water and had some water melon. Walked around then drove home

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Need to work more on keepimg my line in the swim and fix the running prob. So I guess I limited myself somewhat

Event comments:

HFP puts on the good race. This is a nice course and I had a good time overall.
