![]() Swim
Comments: Not bad swim. Happy with it. Became a little more aggresive and not so timid in the water. Didnt just left people pass me by. Was about 1/2 way through when I remembered to focus on full strokes. Was happy with it. Best swim to date. What would you do differently?: Try and keep that focused mental state throughout entire swim as opposed to last half. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Great transition. Little dizzy still. Put my bike shoes on right this time. ![]() Bike
Comments: First 45km - 1 hour and 32 minutes, had 3:05 on my mind, 3:10 for sure...until the tailwind became the headwind now for the ride home! That hurt, and sunk me down big time. I have never been flying higher on the first 45km then I ever had...sucked me dry. - Nutrition: Two back bottles, and front bottle emptied. 2 Cocachia bars adn one gel. What would you do differently?: Figure out why I'm causing my chain to come off - did it twice. More focussed on the first 5km of the bike. It's tough after the swom - but have to get more focussed quickly. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Another great tranisition. Small transition zome - so have to keep that in mind too. What would you do differently?: Speed laces ![]() Run
Comments: All good things must come to an end! This really put into a bad mood when I saw what was in store. The hills were brutal. I read the tri-newbies posting - but for some reason my brain just didnt comprehend it. Was way to difficiult for my skill set. Little disappointing. What would you do differently?: Speed laces! and train more! ![]() Post race
Warm down: No such thing! What limited your ability to perform faster: Ummmm....the run! "Brick" is going to be my new nickname! Event comments: - Many of the mileage signs blew over - so was tough to judge - since it was a two looper if those signs were your or not...little frustrating. Last updated: 2005-08-15 12:00 AM

Woke up at 5:15am - took a bath. Had some gluten free cereal and rice milk with a banana. Had a bagel and peanut butter about 1 hour after that. Packed up the night before - so not much else to it.
Went for a jog - for a bout 200m, then took a 25m swim when I was in the water.
