Actually warmed up this time. Ran for about 10 minutes and then swam for few minutes since I was in the 2nd wave.

Probably the best swim start I have had. Caught some feet for the first time and was able to use that to come out of the water with an avg of less than 2:00/100 for the first time.
Transition 1
  • 02m 7s
Comments:

Slight up hill run to transistion. Decided not to leave the shoes on the bike since I had not practiced it much and it was an uphill start.

Felt pretty good. It was the fastest I had completed this course but I tried to push it as hard as I could. I don't have a computer on the bike yet and I didn't look at my watch so I was not sure but from an exertion standpoint it felt good. Tried to count how many times I got passed but lost count. I think I only got passed by 6 women though. Of course they started 5 minutes behind my wave.
Transition 2
  • 01m 34s
Comments:

Took shoes off while coming into transition. Didn't try to jump off too hard but it did help with a smoother transition.
Run
  • 36m 36s
  • 4 miles

Comments:

The hill on the backside killed me as I had to walk parts of it both times but at least we got to come back down so I was able to at least make up some of the time. I did catch the camera on the other up-hill part of the course so stepped it up a little for the action shot.
