Pre-race routine:

Bagel with PB and OJ. Coffee, drove to warsaw, kinda behind schedule, IMO.

Saw running2far in line for the crappers. nice guy.

Event warmup:

Didn't get that great of a warmup. Ran for like 10 minutes, no bike and no swim as teh water was closed. It really f'd up my swim. I shoul dhave been about 90 seconds faster.

440 yards

Comments:

Came out pretty fast, but lost it. I jacked this swim up on the back in portion, so Ijust finished nice and easy figuring I would slay on the bike.

What would you do differently?:

Slow down at the start and dictate my pace better.

Transition 1

01m 47s

Comments:

Took my time. Got ready to put it down in my own time.

What would you do differently?:

Maybe pick it up a piece.

Comments:

Did OK here. Could have done better, but there you go. Passed Hayes here. Gave me encouragement. See, a nice guy, like I said.

What would you do differently?:

Maybe kicked it up a notch. Could have done better on the inclines.

Transition 2

01m 44s

Comments:

Not a real barn burner.

What would you do differently?:

I need speed laces. I miss my old shoes.

Run

23m
3 miles
07m 40s min/mile

Comments:

Ran pretty good. Slow the first mile, then ratcheted it up.

What would you do differently?:

Maybe just a squinch faster the first mile.

Post race

Warm down:

walked it off, had some water.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

my own limits, except there is this thing called lactate that kinda didn't help on the bike part.
