Pre-race routine:

RUSHED! Replaced flat rear flat tire @ car, only ~10 minutes to do transition setup, get # & time chip, and clear transition area.
Event warmup:

No warm up
Swim
  • 07m 27s
  • 440 yards
  • 01m 41s / 100 yards
Comments:

FS 35-40%, BS 60-65%. Very congested, difficult to dodge lifeguards and swimmers during last 150y.
What would you do differently?:

Get in front of wave prior to start. Less BS.
Transition 1
  • 02m 58s
Comments:

Assigned area was at end of 3rd rack of bikes. Slight struggles with getting wetsuit off, getting helmet on, and getting feet into clips. Forgot the Gu!

Comments:

quickly ate ~ 2/3 of the Gu; wore hat
Run
  • 24m 16s
  • 3.1 miles
  • 07m 50s  min/mile
Comments:

left transition slightly behind Andy & Cory. Calves cramped after ~1/8 mile, requiring very slow pace to recover, but did not stop completely. After 0.75 to 1 mile was able to pick up the pace and run well for remainder.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Swim strength & positioning, experience biking hills, familiarity with bike & run course

Event comments:

Beautiful city and area to compete.

Biggest gripe is that transition area logistics are unfair - WAS NOT in one end, out the other; if your spot is at the back of the area, you have to go much further than those closer to the entrance.
