Swim
Comments: I swam the freestyle the whole way! This was by far my best swim. I was a little out of wack for the first 100 yds, but then I settled down and had an easy swim. What would you do differently?: Start closer to the front. I waited for about 30 seconds before I started swimming. Transition 1
Comments: I felt like I was slow, but my time was pretty good considering I had a wetsuit on. What would you do differently?: Get organized pre race. Bike
Comments: Wow. My bike fitness blows. I spent the winter doing long slow runs and swimming and I felt it on the bike. I was 2 mph below my normal average and I was spent when I got off the bike. What would you do differently?: I need to train more on the bike. Transition 2
Comments: I wiped out at the dismount line. The guy in front of me jumped off his bike and slid on his cleats. This caused one of the volunteers to reach out and grab me because they thought I was going to run him over. Next time I won't lock up the front brake when I see an arm reach out and grab me. What would you do differently?: Slow down more for the dismount line. saving 2.3 seconds isn't worth the face plant. Run
Comments: This was an ok run. I don't have my fast gear right now and I think I need to do more hills and speed work. What would you do differently?: Not much. I knew I wasn't going to be fast here. Post race
Warm down: Cheered on fellow racers and enjoyed a beautiful day. What limited your ability to perform faster: Training. I've spent the winter working on things that didn't translate to a sprint, but they will for longer races. Event comments: This is a nice race that is run well. Last updated: 2008-01-19 12:00 AM
