 Swim
Comments: Swim went well. Better than I expected. I've swum very litte since IM Moo and thought I would really feel it. Perhaps it was too short to get into any real trouble. The swim time did not end once out of the water. There was a HR busting run of about 100 Yards to the timing mats. After those, it was onto T1 What would you do differently?: Just keep training.  Transition 1
Comments: This transition had a gigantor hill in it which took your busted HR and busted it 10x more. What would you do differently?: Not much. Everything went fine.  Bike
Comments: Solid bike effort and my fastest avg speed in a race to date. Was pleased with this. I was only passed once. Saw ADollar down for the count after he nailed a car.. he looked ok though, just lots of blood. The bike looked worse. What would you do differently?: Nothing. This was as I wanted it to be. Especially so close (relatively speaking) to Moo. Transition 2
Comments: A pretty good T2. Pretty non descript. What would you do differently?: Get more efficient.  Run
Comments: I ran this race last year and my run was faster, but I was peaking then, and about 14 pounds lighter. I was one minute slower this year, but I am not unhappy about that. I did an 18 mile long run on Friday night that I would grade myself a 2 out of 10 which should indicate how bad I felt. So, all in all, this was a solid effort. What would you do differently?: lose weight, speed work. Post race
Warm down: Because I finished relatively early compared to other racers, I got right onto a massage table. Other than that, I chatted, got my shirt, and ate. What limited your ability to perform faster: 18 mile long run two days earlier, proximity to my IM where my legs are still not 100 percent, and 14 extra lbs. Event comments: Suprisingly, this is my sprint distance PR, and it beats last years time by a minute, thirty seconds. This event is very popular and is well done. I will be doing this one again.

Woke up at 4, left the house at 4:30 and arrived at the race site at 5:20. Was nearly the first one there. Got a great parking spot and checked in. After that, racked my bike and set up T. With my voluminous
spare time, I stretched a bit of Friday's 18 mile long run off. Felt great. At 10 min after 7, I headed down to the beach for a 7:30 am start.
Swam 100 yards out and 100 back in. Felt ok. Once done, I got out and talked to ADollar and LHables. Soon it was time to line up to start with the 3rd wave. A minute later we were off.
