Swim was really good, except i kept kind of getting confused at each turn. Wasn't sure if i was flipping into the right lane, where i was in the pool, etc.

practice flip turns and pushing off at an angle under lane lines.

got to ride out of transition area

need to buy a pair of elastic laces for my tennis shoes.

time is estimate here. Course was an easy one. Lost my water bottle on one of the bumps though. I was a little cautious speed wise on the bike, because the runners were on the same course and i didn't want to take anyone out.

I forgot what color my towel was and where exactly my spot was. Since i already had my running shoes on (no clips) i just racked my bike at an empty spot. I had a late start, so a lot of people had already packed up their stuff. Worked out well, but would have been a real problem if there were lots of bikes in the transition area.

remember what color my towel is and where i left my stuff

run felt strong. The volunteers on the course were awesome. Best volunteers/cheerleaders of any race i have done thus far

maybe could have picked it up just a little. I only missed 1st place finish by :24 sec.

walked around a bit, waited for awards had some grapes and then i had to drive home


more sleep the night before probably would have been useful.


like i said awesome volunteers. A really fun event
