Swim
Comments: I hadn't swam in a while and I didn't get a warm up but it went ok. Transition 1
Comments: I was pretty dizzy after the swim. I haven't been training that issue much so I had trouble keeping my bearings out of the water. There isn't where to train in open water here in Steamboat but I should be able to fix that before Nationals. The water was really cold so that may have been part of it. What would you do differently?: Train to run after the swim more. Bike
Comments: My legs took a bit to get warmed up and they felt a little stiff but I finished stronger than I thought I would. What would you do differently?: I've slacked off on training a bit due to work and life in general so, not much. Transition 2
Comments: I don't remember it so it must have been fast. This also included about a quarter mile run through transistion. I was on one end and the run start was on the other. What would you do differently?: not much Run
Comments: I didn't get into a rythem until mile two. It turned out to be faster than I thought it would be. What would you do differently?: Run more Post race
Warm down: Un-eventful What limited your ability to perform faster: Time to train Event comments: This was a good race and a great venue. The only issue I have is the water, My allergies are in full effect. My head is completely clogged up and my eyes won't stop itching. There was a considerable amount of algea to deal with. I was originally going to bail on the race but I'm glad I did it. I know I can do better than this but life is in caos right now so it is what it is! Last updated: 2008-03-24 12:00 AM

I really didn't know if I was going to race this cause I didn't feel ready for it.
Ran a couple of miles at a semi-fast pace
