Run
Comments: Took it easy on this run as this we had been warned this course would be tough. They didn't lie! What would you do differently?: Train more and do some hilly trail training. I was NOT prepared for running down STEEP hills. Transition 1
Comments: Took a little time to get the Camelback on, but otherwise ok. What would you do differently?: Nothing. Bike
Comments: Tough, tough, tough. But I was pleased with this. I obviously had more MTB experience than some of the other competitors and the full susser came into it's own on the downhills. What would you do differently?: Train more. Transition 2
Comments: Took a little time getting the Camelback off. What would you do differently?: Nothing. Run
Comments: I was beat by this point and this was pure survival. At least I ran all of it. What would you do differently?: Train more. I was not really prepared for a course this hard. Post race
Warm down: None. Just walked to the car got out of my VERY muddy gear and went home. What limited your ability to perform faster: Lack of training and trail running experience. Event comments: This was a very low key event, so no aid stations etc. It all added to the 'tough' feel of the event though. No room for pampered hissy fit athletes here! I'll be back.
