![]() Swim
Comments: Not so sure about the 580 yard default for the swim. Still learning how to swim at this point doing Total Immersion. What would you do differently?: Probably didn't need the wetsuit. The water was fairly warm but the outside temp with the light rain made the wetsuit nice! ![]() Transition 1
Comments: Sprayed stuff called "Suit Juice" on my ankles and made the wetsuit come off much easier. What would you do differently?: Not take so much time during T1. Not sure why it took me so long. Next time will skip the massage and latte. ![]() Bike
Comments: While this is only my 2nd triathlon, the bike seems to be my strong point. Felt really good on the bike but also very aware and cautious due to the wet roads. Saw a few wipeouts What would you do differently?: Nothing ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Once again, should have been faster What would you do differently?: See above ![]() Run
Comments: The "killer hill" wasn't really that bad, but it was unwelcome site to tired legs from the bike. Did a GU on the run out ![]() Post race
Warm down: T3 (race site to jacuzzi) Now becoming really cold in the pouring rain after not running for about 10 minutes. Grabbed all of the crap at transition and got back to the Abbey ASAP and made a dash for the jacuzzi. Quite possibly the best warm water I have ever felt. It's 9AM- Corona's please!!!!! Event comments: Quite possibly the worst race shirt ever! Why even bother? How about don't include crappy prison issue sweatshirts and lower the cost of the race. Will probably see lots of homeless guys in Chicago eventually wearing these things...Great advertisement???!!! Last updated: 2010-09-14 12:00 AM

Arrived at transition right at 0500 and staged my gear. Walked back to the Abbey and had 2 PB&Js, and 1 cup of java. My swim time wasn't until 0725 so had time to kick back and relax. Surfed the net, hit the potty, ready to tri!!!!!
None. Walked from the Abbey to the course. Was overcast with light rain
