WHY can't I get this swim under 30 min?????
What would you do differently?:

um, don't know - I thought it went pretty well except for that woman who tangled with me and we headed off course..
Transition 1

What would you do differently?:

hopefully not have a sore hamstring coming into T1
Bike

  • 18.2 miles
  • 17.78 mile/hr
What would you do differently?:

get the bike under an hour - I left too much 'in the tank' so I could mentally get thru the run
Transition 2
  • 02m 21s
Comments:

I was surprised when I saw the results and that it took me more than 2 min for T2. Thought I'd gone about as fast as possible given my left hamstring..
What would you do differently?:

not sure - I think maybe I looped around the racks too far - I always get the run out wrong!! and nobody stops me..
Run

  • 12m 49s  min/mile
Comments:

not bad.. In fact I was surprised when I came to mile marker one and I was still running/not in severe pain
What would you do differently?:

not be injured????
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

4 month old hamstring pull

Event comments:

Love this race, love this venue but why don't they ever have any beer left when I finish?? I worked just as hard as everybody else (maybe harder since I'm old and fat)
