Pre-race routine:

The pre-race routine is still 'in progress'. I'm really bad at this because I can't get food down on race mornings. I did have a yummy dinner @ Cactus Joe's in Laconia the night before.
Event warmup:

No warm-up, didn't arrive early enough

What would you do differently?:

this was a pretty slow t1 for me but that's what lack of training will do ;)

Damn I'm slow :(
i thought my time was better. I felt really good - i changed my bike fit a day before and it helped ALOT. The ride back is awesome because the gradual decline allowed me to get a big strong cadence to power down to the finish. Again - lack of training kept me in my slow pace but it was fun!!
Transition 2
  • 03m 16s
Comments:

again, slow T for me but i was happy to be off the bike!
Run

Comments:

This was my biggest surprise; the lack of training didn't have an effect on my run - i kept a good pace, took my 2 walk breaks and a sip of H20 @ mile 1 and 2 and i was fine :) came in smiling!

Warm down:

Found my peeps and went and had a huge lunch and blue moons back at Cactus Joe's :)

Event comments:

Endorfun does an amazing job - for the size it couldn't be better!!
I'm scared to death to move up to the 1/2 IM but it's certainly one i'd concider because it's such a well organized and beautiful race.

I couldn't be happier with this~ I have to really work on getting out in front at the start because i wanted to go faster so many times but couldn't get around people. The breast strokers killed me - swimming sub-2 min/100 makes me so happy!
