Swim
Comments: Nice swim, goggles broke just before needed to tape them together, start was not good swam diagonal instead of straight, cost me so much time, then I did it again on the return trip down the back side. If I swam straight I believe I would have had a good swim. What would you do differently?: sight more keeping me in a straight line Transition 1
Bike
Comments: Felt good after swim got out on bike and felt fine, thought I thought i did much better than my time showed. Lost my chain on the third lap that cost me allot of time. It was on the 1st hill after the T area. Also stopped to help someone for a short time on the 4th lap. What would you do differently?: more hill work, learn how to use my gears better. Transition 2
Run
Comments: Was comfortable on run. Needed to walk up hill on back side of bridge. Felt like i waited a few minutes to late to have my last GU on run and slowed down at end. What would you do differently?: need to do more speed work on my running Post race
Warm down: packed up and walked stuff back to car. What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of speed training and poor line swimming Event comments: Thought the race was great, well worth my trip to Greenfield. The Volunteers were great. I have done many TRIs that the volunteers end up leaving before the last runners come through. The motivational words on road of the hill were a real lift at a tough part of the race. thanks to all the Volunteers that stick with us finishers. Last updated: 2007-08-06 12:00 AM
