Comments:

Seems a little slow, but ranking is good, so the course may have been a bit long.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Good swim.
Transition 1
  • 01m 59s
Comments:

Need to pay more attention to these. Lost 28 seconds to first place here. It's not anything major, just little things that add up.
Bike
  • 1h 08m 6s
  • 25.8 miles
  • 22.73 mile/hr
Comments:

212 watts AP. Didn't calibrate before the race, so it may be off. But since I was first in the AG, it's probably close or a little low. Great split, though. Pushed hard, but kept it reasonable. Had only 1 person pass me, 41 year old who won the masters.
What would you do differently?:

Still feel sketchy cornering. I think I'm still nervous over the skidding that happened with the flat at Couples.
Transition 2
  • 01m 7s
Comments:

Better here, even with putting socks on.
What would you do differently?:

Find shoes that don't need socks.
Run
  • 44m 59s
  • 6 miles
  • 07m 30s  min/mile
Comments:

Pretty decent run, actually. Felt slow, but 7:30s is okay. Hoping to improve on that for TriRock.
Post race
Warm down:

Nothing.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not following through on the weight loss.

Event comments:

Beer, pizza, plenty of water and drinks. What's not to like? The only drawback was how long the awards ceremony took. But that's a nitpick and it was 2 races after all.

Executing this full Ironman plan for 17 weeks would give people with one Ironman under their belts very good preparation for a 2nd and 3rd. Preferably, you should have a 6:30 or faster HIM time.
