 Swim
Comments: swam very straight out to turn-around; drifted right a bit on the way back, also got a mouth full of water and had to stop to cough and clear it on the way back What would you do differently?: continue to improve strength, swim stroke, and navigation  Transition 1
Comments: 7/86 in division for transition - very happy with this one What would you do differently?: learn how to mount bike w/ shoes already clipped in and get shoes on while riding  Bike
Comments: could have pushed harder in some places, probably not my max effort here - need to work on the mental aspect on the bike What would you do differently?: improve bike speed, continue to work on climbing strength, work on aero position Transition 2
Comments: 29/86 in age group for T2, an improvement from the past but not fast enough, dropped bike trying to wave to Charles on my way in to transition What would you do differently?: go to the run without socks  Run
Comments: felt good - started strong, maintained okay What would you do differently?: finish some training runs w/ a strong 800m at the end to become accustom to hard effort when tired Post race
Warm down: walked and drank water for a few minutes, stretched, changed into dry clothes, ate a banana and then enjoyed the festival What limited your ability to perform faster: swim is better but still has a way to go, definitely felt that I could have done more on the bike both physically and mentally, very happy with my run and my transitions Event comments: This was an awesome event! The shwagg was great - shirt, hat, tote bag, metal water bottle, towel, and metal! The festival was a blast - relaxing by the beach w/ homemade ice cream, margaritas, beer, and all kinds of good food. Everything was super well organized and the expo was very cool. The park is beautiful. All of the volunteers were wonderful and the results were posted online same day. You can't beat this one! Last updated: 2008-12-18 12:00 AM
