Pre-race routine:

Got up at 4am and ate a PB bagel, banana and coffee. Long walk with our bikes and gear down to the transition area. Got there a little later so no room to rack my bike. One woman was nice enough to squeeze me in though. Saw Deanna and found out we were in the LAST wave of the day. Ran into sgoehner, scoob and djdavey and his friend. Saw Phil..he held my bike while I registered..thanks Phil :) Chatted with Morey, Schmize, Jmwebbs, Peggy, Pseudoyams and PJ.


Event warmup:

Got on my wetsuit and went for a quick swim. COLD!!!

Swim felt pretty good. Need to concentrate on my form. Was kicked quite a bit...we were all swimming in a pack for awhile. I tried to stay to the left and concentrate on sighting because I tend to get off course.
