![]() Swim
Comments: Slow around the bouys, lots of congestion. Was initially happy with my swim until I saw my time!! What would you do differently?: Run faster out of the water. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Stuck behind people who didn't want to run to road. Frustrating. What would you do differently?: No troubles undo-ing wetsuit, just getting it off over my feet and getting the bike shoes on. Should be aiming for a 1:30 in T1. ![]() Bike
Comments: Minor headwind towards westgate. What would you do differently?: Push much harder. Avg on bike approx 25-26 kph. Should be pushed to at least 28. Wiggle toes - feet were numb. Remember to drink more. ![]() Transition 2
![]() Run
Comments: Difficult to run with numb feet. Just took a few sips to drink. Ran at comfortable pace of HR 178. Didn't push until very end. What would you do differently?: Pick up at half way mark. ![]() Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Fear of not making it to the end. I know I can do the distance, I should be able to push myself harder. There was plenty left in the tank. Last updated: 2004-11-21 12:00 AM

Packed all gear the night before. Excellent being so organised. Early to bed at about 9.15, slept well. Woke with alarm at 5.30. Incredibly nervous. Had a bowl of cereal with banana. Couldn't finish it all, guts were churning because I was so nervous!
Rode down to St Kilda, nice short warm up and met up with the crew. Met at about 6:15, this gave us plenty of time to set up gear and test water. Brr. Definitely worth lying in the water before starting.
