 Swim
Comments: I was so happy when I got out of the pool! What would you do differently?: Get individual lessons during training in addition to DAM group workouts.  Transition 1
Comments: It was slick on the mats running from the swim to the transition area, so I ran cautiously. I had my transition area set up to be very user-friendly, I'd do it the same way again. What would you do differently?: Not worry so much about drying my feet with the towel.  Bike
Comments: I passed about 15 people, so I felt like I was keeping pace well. What would you do differently?: Try starting out a little faster. I would have liked to have finished in 1 hour. Transition 2
 Run
Comments: I had a mild cramp I was trying to keep at bay, so didn't psuh myself harder than I knew I could handle. People along the way were very encouraging; the police officers, even other racers...it was nice to get pepped up in the last leg of the race. What would you do differently?: Practice on my speed more before the race; more sprints. Post race
Warm down: Breath, drink water, grab a hamburger and a coke. About an hour later got back to the transition area where I had my Cytomax and drank that. What limited your ability to perform faster: Cardio levels. Event comments: The people involved in putting on the race are great. Thanks for making my first triathlon something I'm glad I did!

Extreme Veteran 401 Texas | Subject: RE: Tom Landry Triathalon Great job. I don't know about you, but after my first triathlon I was addicted. The more I get into triathlon the more I realize how many triathletes there are in Dallas. Lots and lots of training partners. |

Woke up at 4:30am; ate oatmeal. Arrived at check-in at 5:30 to set up transition area. Waited until around 8:45am to have pre-formance drink, then gel around 9:30am...didn't get in the pool til nearly 10:00am.
Hurry up and wait...it took a long time to get nearly 600 people through the pool. Being a slow swimmer, I was towards the back. But this had it's advantages...it was much warmer on the bike for me than it was for those that went at 7:00am.
