Comments: felt great and very relaxed, ran in the lead pack and entered T1 at the same time as the elites What would you do differently?: nothing ![]() Transition 1
Comments: the morning dew caused the wet grass to stick to my rims, frame, and petals. it made for a slippery mount of the cycle, but I was ready for and and played it safe (but SLOW). What would you do differently?: for next season I want to learn the shoes on petals trick ![]() Bike
Comments: Took a leak on the side of the road at mile 40ish, ate and drank as planned What would you do differently?: train harder ![]() Transition 2
Comments: I thought it was slower than 1 min, but I guess the chip doesn't lie. What would you do differently?: hustle more ![]() Run
Comments: I concentrated on pacing myself and not going out too hard like the last .5 IM. I paced myself, but set the pace a bit slower than I should have, but I guess it wasn't bad having some left at the end. What would you do differently?: Take it out slightly faster. slightly. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Light stretch and walk. What limited your ability to perform faster: My lack of skill on the bike. Event comments: I gave the race a bad rating because it was supposed to be a half ironman triathlon. On Satruday, during my practice swim, me and all of the other swimmers were waved out of the lake and informed that the lake had just failed a safety test. A sewage leak into the groundwater had contaminated the lake thus rendering it unsafe to swim in. The race director then decided to make the race a duathlon. Last updated: 2004-09-12 12:00 AM
