Pre-race routine:

I woke up to show flurries and almost decided to bag the race. Then I heard my BT friends screaming "suck it up, buttercup!" in my head and drove to the Y. It was cold, but not bitter.
Event warmup:

A few warm up laps before my heat

Comments:

I had a pretty good swim over all.
Transition 1
  • 00m
Comments:

I stopped my watch for transition, so I'm not sure of the exact time. It was not a fast transistion. Due to the weather, I took the time to dry off and put on layers. A couple of hardier souls had quick transitions and went out with wet shorts. I'm not that brave.

Event comments:

The venues for both swim and run were my usual lunchtime training locations. The weather was not ideal, but not terrible. There were a couple of dozen participants. The volunteers were great - it was a fun way to kick off the season.
