Pre-race routine:

Set up my transition area. This was my first triathlon so I really had no idea what to do. So I just looked around and did what everyone else did.
Event warmup:

Not much. Drank and talked to my mom

Comments:

First true tri swim....killed me. It was tougher than I had imagined, but I got through it.
What would you do differently?:

Swim more, longer, do drills, and more open water swimming
Transition 1
  • 01m 37s
Comments:

My first T1...not bad.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Go faster perhaps.

Comments:

I was impressed with my bike. Not a big biker, but did well in my eyes. I passed alot of people on the bike which was good, probably because my swim was so slow.
What would you do differently?:

Train smarter on the bike, and ride longer distances.
Transition 2
  • 00m 55s
Comments:

Once again tried to get in and out as quick as possible.
What would you do differently?:

Practice!
Run
  • 30m 5s
  • 4 miles
  • 07m 31s  min/mile
Comments:

This run started off on the rods and found its way to some trails with a lot of rolling hills.
What would you do differently?:

Way more brick workouts, this was a horrible run for me.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around, drank, and ate.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Smarter training, more brick workouts, more open water swims and perhaps looking into more tri specific goods.
