Swim
Comments: The swim was AFTER the bike so getting my suit on was unusual but I did the baggie on the feet trick and it want OK. I was doing pretty well until the last 1/3 of the 2nd lap my right calf cramped up big time and I had to do something I have never done before and that was hold on the the life guard board until it relaxed. I met Jenn there she was having a similar issue. I guess being hot then in the cold water was the issue What would you do differently?: I don't want to ever cramp up again but I don't really know how to avoid it in that situation. Transition 1
Comments: Getting in the wet suit AFTER riding the bike was interesting. Bike
Comments: I am sure glad that I did all those climbing repeats this winter or I would have walked the whole thing but as it was I only had to walk about the last 1/3 of the last short climb but made it up the long ones with out walking Another WHOO HOO! moment What would you do differently?: I don't think anything Transition 2
Comments: Did Ok and THEN went to the run Run
Comments: It was hard to run being so tired and I thank Cach for all those double days so I would know how to run when I just wanted to take a nap :) Post race
Warm down: walked some and even got in the creek to cool off then drove home to my Hubby a shower, meal and bedtime Event comments: 3 down and just one to go and HFP is doing a great job Last updated: 2008-01-25 12:00 AM
