  • Comments: My goal was 1:10 and to finish top 3 in my division. Although I did not break 1:10, my bike and run times were faster than what I was hoping for. Very disappointed with the swim, but felt great that I came back and had a great bike and a GREAT run. Even with the bad swim, I only lost about 3 mins from what I would have had if I had swam my normal pace. I think that's amazing that one can train like hell swimming, then have the worst swim possible with more than half of it on your back, yet only spot 3 minutes from what you would normally have posted if you had swam your pace. I'm now convinced that the swim is just something to get through so you can get to the bike and run.

  • Comments: Goal was under 1 hour. Still have room to improve. Need to get my bike power up to run better than 20 mph. I thought I was there, but I wasn't. Disappointed in my placing, but very happy with my improvements. I guess you can't really expect to make big improvements in all disciplines. 30 seconds off the swim and 1:30 off the run are big steps in the right direction.
