Swim
Comments: 1500m along the length of the downtown canal. Truly an experience. Shallow, but deep enough to swim; pretty clean; narrow, so easy sighting and navigation. Several 90 degree turns; I have never had to swim the tangents before but it saved time. Transition 1
Bike
Comments: I did a very poor job in handling corners, rough roads, and so on. I was riding faster but lost lots of time and places in handling. Transition 2
Run
Comments: One pit stop and one aid station (the two slower miles) 8.28--8.09--8.01--8.27--8.06--8.05--1.27 HR 156--162--167--169--173--176--182 Post race
Event comments: Fun to race downtown; bike course is flat but roads and some turns are sketchy. Canal swim is a hoot. Last updated: 2008-08-18 12:00 AM

I decided to do this Sunday race while I was driving back from Saturday morning's Xterra race . . . so not a lot of rest or preparation.
Never been so rushed in getting registered or setting up, but made it.
