Had a great swim, the waves were a little tough going out to the first buoy, hard to sight the bouys due to the swells. Settled in after the first buoy and had a good rest of the swim, stayed on course and felt good coming out of the water.

Probably could have done a better job getting to the first buoy, went a little wide because I thought the current was stronger.

Sat down to take off the wetsuit, that's the way to go for me, it's quicker than falling over trying to get it off.

Nothing

Felt good on the bike, maybe not as fast as I would have liked. Did not feel like I could go as fast as I should for such a short distance, legs felt a little tired.

Had my cages on so getting into T1 and back out was not a problem, helmet off and off to the run.

Felt O.K. on the run, never felt terrible. The beach was not bad, ran on the hard packed sand near the waterline.

My run is usually my best event, I need to pick up the pace for sure. I did not keep track of my splits, I should have paid attemtion to the splits, I could have picked up the pace.

Drank 2 bottles of gatorade and had a sandwich.


I did the White Lake 1/2 the week before so maybe my legs were still a little tired from that, did not feel like I had the power I needed on the bike. It's such a short bike that I really needed to go all out. I think my top speed was 23-24 MPH.


For me to finish the swim third in my AG was awesome, my last 2 races my swim has been great, it used to be my weakest area. I have been counting on my run to save me on the last few races and it has not. I have been taking my running for granted, not putting in the miles.
