Swim
Comments: At the beginning everyone around me was swimming all over the place. I had to pull up several times in the first 100 meters or so. I was 3:09 faster than last year. What would you do differently?: Move to the outside instead of the middle of the pack. Transition 1
Comments: T1 & T2 times were included in the bike time What would you do differently?: Nothiing Bike
Comments: The bike wouldn't shift out of the large chainring. At first I thought that would be a problem, but it ended up being good for me. I kept a good pace going although I don't know what it was. I'm sure I was over 20 mph. I got passed by a few people but passed a lot of other people. This was :58 fatser than last year What would you do differently?: Don't have Trek work on my bike before a race. Transition 2
Comments: Last year I felt really tight starting the run, but not this time Run
Comments: I usually get passed a few feet from the run start, then the flood gates open and I just try to finish. This time I felt really good on the run. I got passed after about 1/8 of a mile but the guy who passed me didn't pull away from me. Then I figured I could run with him. I got passed by a few people but not as many as before, that is what kept me running. I started to get tired but realized I was only 1 mile from the finish. I would have to run a 16 min/mile to not beat last years time and the east side of the overpass has a longer downhill than uphill. That is what helped push me to the finish line. I have to check, but I think this was my fastest 5k ever! I am usually a 10 mn/miler so 8 something is good for me.The run was 1:44 fastert han last year. What would you do differently?: Nothing Post race
Warm down: hung out talking to freinds. I was looking for BlueRover and Dolly who I knew started after me. I saw BlueRover coming out of the water then got a Jamba Juice and went home What limited your ability to perform faster: Not being a faster runner Event comments: I was 7 min faster than last year and 10 min faster than the year before that.

Hung out with freinds talking. I met Dolly (Darlene)Ate a Cliff bar 1 hour before wave start.
None!!! We almost missed our wave start because we were talking. We ran to the water trying to zip up our wetsuits while running. I swam to the start line when they said 30 seconds. Then off we went!
