Swim
Comments: First 200 or so went fine, then started having breathing problems. Started breathing on Right only (bouys were on left). I'll figure it out someday. Watch read 12min when I got out of the water. Then I had to run what felt like a 5K to T1. What would you do differently?: Swim faster Transition 1
Comments: Did not wear socks this time.Down hill run with bike to mount/dismount line. Difficult in bike shoes. What would you do differently?: Be faster Bike
Comments: Was able to drink this time. Wish I had more power. Lots of people flew past me when I thought I was going fast. What would you do differently?: I need to ride more. Transition 2
Comments: I don't know what took me so long. I thought everything went smooth/fast. What would you do differently?: Don't know what took so long. Run
Comments: My watch read 24:25, don't know why the discrepancy. Could not drink. Someone tried to pass me at the end. I never saw him, but I could hear him. He must have been the crowd favorite, cause I could hear them cheering for him. When I heard him right beside me, I started sprinting. We crossed the timing mat at the same time, don't know who finished first. I was so mad/disappointed with my overall time that I never looked to see who it was. I hope it was not the 84yo guy. What would you do differently?: Push myself harder. Post race
Warm down: Walked around, ate, drank. What limited your ability to perform faster: Still learning how to push myself. I can go faster, just need to do it. Event comments: The volunteers on the run were intersting. I think they were locals. Some were animated and supportive (especially the guy at the last cul-de-sac), some looked like they were fulfilling court ordered community service. Last updated: 2005-06-27 12:00 AM

Woke up and drove 1.5hr to race site. Tried to eat an Apricot Clif Bar. I do not recommend this flavor. It tasted like a cough drop. Now, I did have a cough, but the 2 bites I took did not help it. Drank my coffee instead.
Swam 200.
