Pre-race routine:

I try to get down some oatmeal with applesauce and of course a cup of coffee. I usually don't have much of an appetite before a race so I'm lucky if I get down half of my breakfast. Other than that, I just suit up and go.

Swim went great.

Transition 1

Comments:

Okay for my first race in 7 years.

Bike

40 kms
0.00 km/hr

Comments:

The hills combined with my gearing just killed my legs.

What would you do differently?:

More time in the saddle, different gearing, and much more hill training.

Transition 2

Run

Comments:

Legs were pretty well spent after the bike leg. Left leg was cramping during the first 3 miles . . . . ouch.

What would you do differently?:

Smarter training.

Event comments:

The course was fantastic, calm lake, mountain roads, part trail part road run course. Unfortunately the climbs were more than I was ready for . . . . .either I need stronger legs or lower gearing for climbing. I've spent a lot of time in the water which showed in my swim leg, but it seems it was at the expense of time in the saddle.
