do the shoe on bike transition

193/350 need to get faster with getting shoes on

practice transitions prior to race

Felt good, had plenty left at the end but since the closest competitor was too far ahead to catch I didn't push it in.

Go out harder with more relaxed breathing.

Light walk and stretch, stuck around for the awards because I got 2nd in 25-29 age group, then went home and went MTBing.


my lack of ability in the swim and my lack of practice in the transition areas


The lake was terrible, and the race started late (due to logistical problems - limited parking made for athletes checking in late), but after it got started all was good. It was not a USAT sanctioned event, and the drafting rules were not enforced, which kindof upset me. I liked the race/course enough to highly consider doing it again next year.
