This swim was great. I felt strong throughout the whole swim. I am disappointed in my time considering how good I felt. The course looked long to just about everybody on shore before the race and this proved to be true. Looking at the winners swim times they were about 20 - 30 seconds slower than 2009. 2010 weather was awful and extremely choppy.

Keep swimming.

Better than most of my previous transitions.

I am very happy with this ride. I took off over 8 minutes from my time last year on this course. Wind conditions were similar so I feel pretty good that it is a good comparison. I was pushing pretty good, and the hills still killed me. The course did not feel as hard as it did last year.

Need to keep improving.

I am ok with this run, it is about right for what I am capable of right now. It was 30 sec per mile faster than last year.

I need to learn how to push my self earlier during 5K both in Tris and stand-alone. I have been getting faster with each mile but the first is always too slow to get me under 30 minutes.

Walked around a bit, and drank abunch of water.


I have put on some weight in July and August. I need to get that off plus some more. I am finding that easier said than done. Too many cook-out and parties during the summer.


I was really excited about my time, over 10 minutes faster than last year. While I was only 8/9 in AG the AG was pretty competitive compared to other races I have been in.
Second time doing the race and I will be back. I only wish the labeled Bike racks as it was a pain having athletes try to squeeze bike in.
