Pre-race routine:

With race starting at 9 was able to sleep in. Wake up @ 6. Taking this race as a training day so I only had coffee.

Very little warm up. Chilly and not feeling well.

273 yards

Comments:

Actually swam the entire length. Felt really good. My swim was much slower than I thought. I really took my time and concentrated on ensuring that I could make it.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing. I just have to continue working on my swimming.

Transition 1

01m 42s

Comments:

I am not sure why this transition was so slow. I felt like I was just plodding through this portion of the race.

What would you do differently?:

Remember that I need to hurry up. Hurry without rushing.

Bad ride. I can not explain what happened here either. There were wind gust, but we all had to deal with that. Just really slow today.

What would you do differently?:

Ride faster. Not sure. Just didn't have it today.

Transition 2

01m 12s

Comments:

Too slow for only grabbing my belt and taking off my helmet.

What would you do differently?:

Practice.

Run

12m 55s
2 miles
06m 28s min/mile

Comments:

Obviously my strongest area so even though I took it easy mostly, I still did good.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Post race

Warm down:

Just a short walk.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not sure why I wasn't faster. Felt really good going into the event. Really wanted to take it easy but not this easy.

Event comments:

Very good race. Awesome event to open the year. Will definitely keep it on my race calendar.
