 Swim
Comments: I couldn't get my breathing down. Did my comfort side stroke most of the way. Only did 150 meeters of Freestyle. What would you do differently?: Swim!!!!!  Transition 1
Comments: Took a little time to catch my breath before getting my bike shoes on. The water bottles worked well for washing the sand off my feet. It went really fast. didn't run because of the shoes I was wearing. They kept slipping so I walked the long 500 yds to the exit of the transition. What would you do differently?: work on relaxing as I enter transition. Needed a minute to catch my breath. Get walking/bike shoes. It was nice to have clip in shoes but they were not made for running or walking.  Bike
Comments: Pushed pretty hard. took the gel at the right times but at the wrong places on the course. I took a gel right after the turn around so I would have time to digest it before the run. Only problem is I was climbing at the time. What would you do differently?: Take the gel on even ground and push harder on the hills. Transition 2
Comments: Thought this one went really well. it took me about a minute and a half to get to my rack from the entrance. then it was quick getting my shoes and belt on. What would you do differently?: Not change my shirt. Take more care in getting off the bike. One of the shoes came unclipped and I had to stop and pick it up. Carried it as I ran back to my rack.  Run
Comments: Felt ok in the begining. My legs were not that sore. Settled in and ran ok. Thought I ran a fairly good time. What would you do differently?: remember my sunglasses. Post race
Warm down: stetched for a few minutes and walked around. Had a recovery drink with some protien. What limited your ability to perform faster: The swim and transitions. Last updated: 2005-06-30 12:00 AM

Expert 805  Portland,OR | Subject: RE: 8th annual Carpenteria Triathalon Hey Dave, Good job on the run. I think you were one of the many bastards that passed me!!! Your bike was decent too and the swim wasn't that bad!! |
You beat me by 4 minutes! I hate you and everything you stand for! Good luck on improving that swim, I know we all could use some help there. We should get ChrisM to tutor us, he swims like a fish.| 2005-09-29 10:36 AM in reply to: #255804 |
Extreme Veteran 326 Paso Robles, California | Subject: RE: 8th annual Carpenteria Triathalon Dave, Great job. So are you hooked? That is the question after everyone's first race. If you are, warn the wife because it get expensive fast. Again, Great Job and we have to set-up some time to workout on the road. After the fires are gone at least. Jason |

Member 29 Simi Valley | Subject: RE: 8th annual Carpenteria Triathalon I have to say that I will be doing another one next year. I am going to hit the weights a little first. Let's definitely do a ride in the next few weeks. Once the smoke clears. Where in Simi are you? I am safe from flames but the smoke is getting bad. I am on the corner of LA and Madera behind the post office. Dave |

Had a big bowl of oatmeal for breakfast with a banana. Had a lot of water the day before and some pasta for dinner the night before.
Stretched for about 5 min and got in the water 10 min prior to event start. I was not wearing a wet suit so I wanted to get the shock over with (that was the best peice of advice I recieved).
