 Swim
Comments: Pretty good swim for me. Didn't go out too hard and got into a good rhythm by the first turn bouy. Finally didn't zigzag. Made the final turn and swam as hard as I possibly could. Hit the ramp in 18:56 What would you do differently?: Swim 14-15 minutes (If humanly possible for me)!  Transition 1
Comments: Would've been great if the wetsuit didn't get stuck on my ankles. But I got it off and clipped into the bike quickly. What would you do differently?: Get that wetsuit off my ankles!!!  Bike
Comments: My derailer must have got hit during the drive b/c it kept slipping gears. However I found a big gear I could manage to turn around 88-94RPM and hammered it. Only one person passed me (a master male on a P3 Cervelo Carbon with Zipp wheels)...right at the end. I felt like a bullet!! Had I started off a little quicker, I might have averaged 23. Best bike ride of the year by far. Transition 2
Comments: Sweet transition.  Run
Comments: Disappointed with 18:35. mile 1-5:48, felt great until around 2 miles and caught a nasty side stitch. I really felt like I could've ran sub 18. I couldn't breath the last mile but managed to finish grunting and gasping. I really wanted to kick it in and hammer the last mile to catch steven and leg wise, I certainly had it in me. What would you do differently?: Drink a little less on the bike. Post race
Warm down: 5-10 min easy run after I lost the side stitch. What limited your ability to perform faster: SIDE STITCH...BOOOOO! Event comments: Hard to be dissatisfied with my first age group PODIUM finish!!! If I could've ran to my ability, I may have took the category by storm!! Missed out by first by 1:22. But overall I have to be content with a good swim, transitions, awesome bike, TA 2, and good first 2 miles of the run. Last updated: 2008-05-06 12:00 AM

Got up @6 and had toast w/pb, grapes, banana, and oatmeal. Washed it down with lots of h2o and some gatorade. Rode over to the TA on my bike (about 2-3 miles) and picked up my chip. Warmed up for another 15-20 minutes on the bike and put on my wetsuit just in time to swim a 5-10 min warmup in the lake.
