Comments:

I nearly lost my mind in the surf. I swallowed half the ocean and seriously could not find a rhythm.
What would you do differently?:

I don't have a clue.
Transition 1

Comments:

It's a long way to the transition area. I was busy having a heart attack after that swim anyway.
What would you do differently?:

Not have a heart attack getting out of the water.

Comments:

I enjoyed the bike ride, passed more people than passed me... and I passed four people on a hill! Yay! I know- still not very fast anyway.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing- keep taking spin classes. I would have passed four people up a hill without them.
Transition 2
  • 04m 4s
Comments:

I had a surreal moment where I could not find my spot. I was lost in a sea of people- many already done. It felt like eons passed.
What would you do differently?:

study my spot a little harder.

Comments:

I thought I did better on this run than my last triathlon.
What would you do differently?:

Yeah- I've got to run faster. Working on that.
Post race
Warm down:

Water, stretch. Put my flip flops on. Sit down a second.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My bad hip is killing me in the run.

Event comments:

I'm not super star, but I totally enjoyed myself.
