Run
Comments: This was my best run ever, I felt great the whole way. I looked at my time at the 1 mile mark and knew I was having a PR run. I felt strong the throughout the run. I couldn't believe it when the race director called my name and said I finished the first 2 miles with a 8:16 average. What would you do differently?: Not a thing! Transition 1
Comments: Ok I said I was running late...there were no spaces left for my bike so I had to lean it up against the bike rack. When I came in the guy who had his bike racked next to my had his pump between my spokes and my handle bars wraped around the leg of the rack. I got my bike shoes on and un-tangled the bike. Then I found out my bike computer was not working. I kept my cool and blew it off. Anyone who has read my reports knows that stuff like that bothers me too much. After my run I wasn't going to let that distract me! What would you do differently?: Get there earlier. Bike
Comments: I was suprised about the wind, the weather report I read said the wind was 8 mph but it felt harder than that. I felt good on the bike but didn't have any idea how fast I was going. I caught a bunch of people, I just looked ahead and told myself I AM GOING TO PASS THAT ONE. I only got passed 4 times that I can remember. What would you do differently?: Get to the race earlier so my computer will work or I can fix it. Transition 2
Comments: Felt good Run
Comments: This is the fastest I have been coming off the bike. I thought I was going a lot slower. My legs felt very tired. I saw some guys I thought were in my group and was not going to let them pass me. I pushed the best I could and am very happy with the results. I came in at 1:14 which beat my time from 2 years ago! What would you do differently?: More bricks Post race
Warm down: Got a drink called home to brag. What limited your ability to perform faster: Not doing enough bricks. Event comments: Great race I am going to do the whole series. Last updated: 2008-02-16 12:00 AM

Got out of bed and checked the weather on the computer while eating a cliff bar. Since it was cold I decided to wear an underarmor shirt and shorts. I tood a shower made my water bottles and then off to the race.
Picked up my packet and chip then went back to the truck to get the bike. I was running late so they were about to close transition and everyone was at the starting line. I did some quick streaching while at the starting line.
