Comments:

Went first in the adults, but had to pass kids. Nothing I could do, though. Seeded myself as high as I could.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Good race.
Transition 1
  • 01m 3s
Comments:

I thought my transition went well, but I noticed it was slower than the people who were close to me in overall time. Figured it must have something to do with clipping shoes on bike before I start.
What would you do differently?:

Clip in before race.

Comments:

Great ride. Much faster than previous races.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Did well.
Transition 2
  • 00m 43s
Comments:

Very tired. Hard to catch breath. Kept me from moving too fast.
What would you do differently?:

Take feet out of shoes while on bike, leave shoes clipped in. Shouldn't have stopped to drink at transition area. Should have waited for water station along run course.

Comments:

Good run. Finally down in the 8 min/mi range. Can tell I've been training.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Good job.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Need more training - especially on run. Need to be down in 7:30 - 7:45 min/mi on short runs.

Event comments:

Great race. Started this whole triathlon thing 2 mos ago and got my first age group win in my third tri! Going for an overall win before the year is over.
