Being that the swim is the only event I am decent at, I was a little worried as I noticed their was 29 people with faster times than me based upon their estimates. I hit my estimated time almost exactly and fought through passing numerous people. I definitely should have put in a more aggressive time as everyone else obviously did. One guy put his estimated time at 1:10 and did side stroke down the middle of the lane the entire time at a 2:00 per hundred pace.

Put in a more aggressive overall time. I missed first place by 2 seconds as I fought through passing people.

T1 was going great until I tried to jump on the bike, missed and wiped it right in front of my girlfriend and friends that came to support me = awesome. At least I could provide comic relief and no pictures were snapped!

I am still not sure how the leaders get out of T1 in half the time I do....this T1 went about as well as it could for me.

Have more cordination.

I was pretty happy with my bike. This was my first time in aerobars and my calf which I was worried about felt fine the entire bike. I did well on the straightaways but got crushed on the hills. I am improving on the bike but still need a ton of work.

Not much - went about as well as it could - calf felt fine, no accidents and a decent speed.

Thsi went fine and was a good time for me.

Nothing

I was really worried going into the run about my calf as running is the one thing that I was told would be painful and could reinjure the calf. I took it out a little easy, gained some confindence and built the next 1 mile. Around mile 2 I started to feel a little twinge in the muscle. At mile 2.5 I felt much better and somewhat refreshed and finished up strong.

Nothing. Time was great for me and calf made it though feeling pretty good.

Walked a bit, drank gatorade, got my calf massaged


I have only been seriously traing for the last month and need more work. I could not do anything this past week as I messed up my calf muscle pretty good.
