Comments: Not use to the group environment. Not bad though. What would you do differently?: I think I could be a little more aggressive in the water. Not that it will really matter much but I think a more aggressive demeanor would set my mood to be more of a charger for the rest of the race. Transition 1
Comments: Very slow. HR was high. Not sure if a HRM is really necessary during a race. I think at my entry level status it is advisable in order to keep me for over doing it early on. What would you do differently?: I think I need to look for shoes that will allow me to put them on while riding. Bike
Comments: This is where I feel I really suck. I need lots more time in the saddle. This is also where my big breakfast really showed itself. I felt sick the entire ride due to eating to much. What would you do differently?: More T.I.T.S. Lots more T.I.T.S. Eat less before the race. Transition 2
Comments: Not bad for a 1st timer. What would you do differently?: Put number belt on while running. Try to go without socks especially for runs as short at 5k. Run
Comments: The run felt good. The bounce of running seemed to settle my stomach. I had fun cheering for all the other runners as we passed each other on the out and back course. What would you do differently?: Push harder at the end. Post race
Warm down: Walking and drinking water. What limited your ability to perform faster: Novice, not enough training. Event comments: This was my first tri and it was lots of fun. I hope to greatly improve my ability, lose body weight and improve my technique for an over higher level of enjoyment of this wonderful sport. I'm Hooked!!! :) Last updated: 2005-11-10 12:00 AM

Ate to much. I did the same thing at the Kualoa 8k Trail Run. I think I've learned my lesson. Other than that, got up quite early, ate a bowl of Honey-Nut Cheerio's and a banana. I was planning on having a protein bar once arriving at the venue. Getting ready was pretty easy. Suprisingly I had everything I needed. I probably had too much stuff at my T zone. I'll look into it for the next tri.
Minor stretching and a quick dip in the ocean to get use to the water temp.
