Pre-race routine:

Comments:

Good race. Good pace. Swi can get better but I wanted to go out conservatively not knowing how I would hold up-especially for the run. I wanted to have some energy left for the other two segments.
What would you do differently?:

swim a little harder-go stronger earlier.

Performance: Good
Course: Big Boy came on first for Clydesdale. Had a few on my heals but had some energy left to sprint to the finish. Had a cramp just above the knee that I would not wish on anyone but usd the pain as motivation to get the race done-especially since I could see/hear the finish line just ahead. Passed tow with a quarter mile to go. Run Forrest Run!
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
