Swim
Comments: Again congested until rounding the bouy and then I found some space to actually swim. Looking at the time its much better than my first race for the season. What would you do differently?: Be more agressive. Swim harder out. Transition 1
Comments: Still a slow transition. Wasted time deciding whether or not I would wear my singlet and when I decided I would wear it, I was a bit slow putting it on. What would you do differently?: Run faster out of the water. Again! Reconsider clothing. Bike
Comments: Aim was to average over 26km per hour, according to my bike 'puter I average 29km/hr. What would you do differently?: Could aim to push harder, aim for 30km/hr Transition 2
Comments: A bit slow getting the runners on as I lost the bandage for the blister. Put hat and glasses on as I ran out of the compund. Run
Comments: Pretty close to 6 min kms, happy enough with this, should be able to get it down further - perhaps 5.50 min kms? Felt as though my first km was slower than the last. Breathing was ok. What would you do differently?: Train train train for the run Post race
Warm down: Didn't lose my brekky like the girl who finished just in front of me! What limited your ability to perform faster: Much happier with this performance, but still a long way to go. Need to get the nerves under wrap, be more confident in the swim and run harder! Event comments: The rain held off, joy! Last updated: 2004-12-12 12:00 AM

Packed all my gear the night before but didn't get to bed as early as planned. Woke up a few times during the night and half an hour before my alarm went off. Lots of nerves again! Managed to get a banana and english muffin with vegemite down. Thankfully I didn't taste these during the race!
Met up with Erin & Sarsha and checked out the tri club we might join. Had my epic blister that I got from running in the heat with no socks on friday taped by medical staff.
Organisers had trouble closing the roads and we were well late to start, big black clouds looked as though they were going to roll in at any moment and the temp dropped a fair bit. Gave us chics first off a chance to have a chat.
