The first run time includes the first transition, the time was taken coming out of T1. Used the water station to dump water over my head to keep cool, good run overall.

Practice! I was happy that I did not walk at all during the first run, but at the start there were so many ladies who just sprinted ahead of me.

No separate T1 time, got lumped in with first run.

Good transition, took a couple of minutes to change shoes just because they are both tie (runners and bike). Not a big deal though.

The bike was great, passed quite a few people (who in turn passed me then on the second run), but I felt strong on the bike.

There were quite a few (I counted 10-15 people) riding with walkman's on!!! Wouldn't mind except for some of these folks were riding to the left, so it made it hard to pass. Really frustrating. Wouldn't do much of anything different, if I can keep practicing, I will keep getting stronger on this leg.

Good T2, just like T1. Took probably 2 minutes or so.

Nothing.

Same course, again did not walk at all, which was my main goal. Though the jog was quite slow at times, it was still a jog so I am happy. Started feeling tired at the end, but finished strong.

Same as above, practice. :)

Walked a bit, then sat in the shade. Did a little stretching, then got our bikes and rode back to Laura's house. Showered and went to breakfast for a recovery omlette with bacon avacado and tomato. mmmmmmm.


My main limiter was the lack of running training I have been doing. Though I was able to run the entire course, I could have done much better had a I actually be practicing.


Good race, small and very organized. Would do this again if I had to. :)
