Swim
Comments: NOT good. I missed one of the buoys so I had to back track. Water was freezing cold, heart rate shot up due to body trying to stay warm. Eventually found *a* stroke, muscles didn't ever warm up, they felt stiff the entire time. What would you do differently?: WATCH FOR ALL THE BUOYS. I'm an idiot. Thankfully I have 4 more races this year to redeem myself. Transition 1
Bike
Comments: NOT good. Wasted 2:18 messing around with my STUPID shoe covers (you know, since it was FREAKING cold). True bike riding time was 35:30. That sucks. Oh well. Winds were evil from the north west. What would you do differently?: Not use stupid shoe covers (although it may have saved my feet from going numb. What a screw up that was. Thankfully I have 4 more races this year to redeem myself. Transition 2
What would you do differently?: NOT WEAR SHOE COVERS. EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TAKE WET FEET OUT OF SHOES WITH SHOE COVERS. UNABLE TO REMOVE FEET FROM SHOES WHILE ON BIKE. Run
Comments: YAY, it actually went well! What would you do differently?: Train more for the run, I'm still trying to focus on better form, not speed. Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Missing a buoy, wearing shoe covers. Should have finished in 1:08:57.5. First in age group, 6th overall. Last updated: 2011-02-20 12:00 AM
