Pre-race routine:

I packed my bag and got my bike ready the night before so I was ready in the morning and didnt have to rush myself. Just relaxed and sipped coffee. Got to the park early 5:30 and found a parking spot! Picked up race packet and got my body marked (a feat within itself :)) Set up transition area (I got on the end of the rack!) Sipped on more coffee, chatted it up with everybody.
Event warmup:

Swam to buoy and back in.

Comments:

I was trying to take the swim really easy, cause the Thurs before I swam the same course and panicked and started to hyperventelate. So I just wanted to go slow and I felt really, really comfortable. I think having all those people made it easier for me.

It was soooo humid. There was a fountain on the course I ran past and wanted to jump into. I am still sooo dang slow running. I would like to in the future become a faster runner :). I actually sprinted into the finish line though :)

Great job!  It was a bit hot that day.  It took me a while to figure out where the fountain was.  Now I remember.
