![]() Swim
Comments: Good swim. Navigated well. Gave up a good draft too early. What would you do differently?: Held on to the early draft until the 1st turn bouy. ![]() Transition 1
![]() Bike
Comments: Gatorade mix was too strong. I had a hard time drinking it. Power bar went down OK. What would you do differently?: Carry salt tabs. Bring pre-mixed gatorade with me. ![]() Transition 2
![]() Run
Comments: Cramped up immediately. Thought about dropping out. Walked first 3 miles, eaiting for salt tabs to take effect. Ran from station to station the rest of the way, walking through stations. Really tired (heat?). What would you do differently?: Start taking salt tabs on the bike to avoid cramping. Use "surprise yourself" mantra to keep running through the fatigue. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Felt nauseous during stretching. What limited your ability to perform faster: Heat combine with under-training on the run left me useless for the run portion. I think I'll add some run-centered bricks to the summer training schedule. 1hr bike followed by 2hr run. Event comments: Mooseman for life! Last updated: 2008-06-16 12:00 AM

Cashew butter & Jelly sandwich @ 5:15
Parking lot full by 5:35!
No pre-mixed gatorade at transition. Had to mix my own. It was too strong.
