 Swim
Comments: I did gorilla swimming for the first 80%. I couldn't find clear water to put my head in which was SO frustrating! My group seemed confident and strong so i stayed up close to the front in the start but then all hell broke loose and the washing machine effect took hold and i couldn't get out!!! What would you do differently?: lesson learned and need to work on SPRINTING from the front of the pack.  Transition 1
Comments: the swim sucked the life out of me because i was a barge not a flying fish so it took a while for my heart to chill out. What would you do differently?: nothing... i'm good at this part :)  Bike
Comments: this is where the lack of training really became evident. But i did pee on the bike :) only because the start was so delayed and my schedule was way off!! What would you do differently?: try to not let life get in the way ;) Transition 2
Comments: very happy with this - no issues  Run
Comments: I was just so happy to be off the bike but i still had to pee so this sucked just as bad as the bike!!! i walked the water stops and the crazy hill before the causeway. I'm glad i wasn't dead-last overall or in my age group :) I did have a great time!! What would you do differently?: i was happy to see that my pace was not too shabby... of course i want to be faster but with the lack of preparation i'll take 11 m/m. Post race
Warm down: packed up and off to DISNEY WORLD. i don't recommmed this - it's 4 days later and i'm still pooped!! What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of training - but having a job is more important.... right? Event comments: Max does an awesome job - mother nature on the other hand....not so much on this day ;) See ya next year! Last updated: 2009-02-23 12:00 AM

warm-up was impossible

Wandered around wondering about the swim buoys...
