Swim
Comments: I couldn't see the buoys well at all. On the way back, the sun was in my eyes and did not feel as though I navigated well. However, I stayed close to the sighting rope, but the pack was @ 50 meters to my right, so I could not draft. Drafting may have helped my time. Transition 1
Comments: Had to put wetsuit into plastic bag. I couldn't do it. My sunglasses fogged up bad, and when I took them off, I broke them. I wasted a minute with my wetsuit and glasses. What would you do differently?: No Gu, put some more anti fog on sunglasses. Just get moving. Bike
Comments: Felt pretty good. I could have pushed a little harder. My goal was 1:10, so I knew that I was ahead of pace. What would you do differently?: I need more leg power. Transition 2
Comments: I put on socks, they went on fine. I didn't want blisters. What would you do differently?: Practice this. Need to chop off 1 minute. Run
Comments: I felt good, and had a great finish. What would you do differently?: Started running faster at the half way and not the 2/3 way. Post race
Warm down: Water, and a lot of pizza. What limited your ability to perform faster: Transitions. Event comments: A lot of goodies, but no finishers medal. I thought this race would have had more racers. Not even 500 raced. But there is no room at the swim transition for more people. Last updated: 2007-09-12 12:00 AM
