Pretty bad swim, too many slower swimmers to dodge. I could keep a rhythm for majority of leg because I had to look up too much. Oh well
What would you do differently?:

try and swim on the edge to avoid other swimmers

not much

Well, the rain probably slowed me down by about 2 minutes. If I hadnt have had to walk my bike at 2 points, I would have been a bit faster. I had to be alot careful with maneuvering too.
What would you do differently?:

Stopped the rain
Transition 2
  • 03m
Comments:

I was so wet and cold, I could get my bike shoes off too well. Plus, I decided to sacrifice a minute and change to dry socks so it took a bit> at that point I didnt care.
What would you do differently?:

Considering the weather, not much.

Comments:

I started out feeling a bit wiped out but i walked thru the first water stop and then was fine the rest of the course. I basically kept the same pace until the end adn then picked it up a bit. Felt pretty good, albeit slow.
What would you do differently?:

not much
Post race
Warm down:

I basically wandered around looking for my friends. Not much of a warm down.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My weight!

Event comments:

I do this race for the camraderie but not for the course. Its just too big to be have it be my best race, the transition area is huge, the swim course and bike course is crowded. I usually have a great time and like just being able to have fun there. Unfortunately, the rain kind of dampered the spirits a bit.
