Swim
Comments: Water was cold, even with wetsuit. felt good though, crod dispersed quickly and just grooved the whole way. woblly on the exit and run. What would you do differently?: Technique work, perhaps some lessons. Transition 1
Comments: Good with the wetsuit off, slow with the shoes on, and running through the wet grass barefoot. What would you do differently?: Faster with shoes, calm down. Bike
Comments: Great Ride, had some shot blocks, was holding a little back, not knowing what to expect on the run What would you do differently?: Go harder, worried too much about the run Transition 2
Comments: Slow on shoe change again What would you do differently?: get better at switching shoes Run
Comments: decent run, paced too slow at the beginning, but was sort of lonely then, saw few people the first mile, then picked it up. Not a bad 5k time , only a minute off personal best(without the bike and swim bfore) What would you do differently?: Just keep training Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: First year in any endurance sports Event comments: First Tri, it was fantastic, the whole experience was great. Expo was really good, pick-up was no hassle, even trnasition with all the people was not a problem. Will attempt the olympic next year. Only bummer was first mile of the run, too much open space and no one around(it was strange to be alone considering the amount of people in the race). One other phenomenal feature was the trakcing for your spectactors, the text messages helped my spectators know where I was. Last updated: 2007-08-28 12:00 AM
