Swim
Comments: It was a warm day and the water felt great. What would you do differently?: Nothing Transition 1
Comments: There was no wetsuit to deal with so this was a very easy transition. I was glad I had flip-flops after the swim because I had to run across the hot asphalt parking lot. What would you do differently?: Nothing Bike
Comments: Everything went fine except for a scary moment involving a huge swarm of bees. What would you do differently?: Spend more time in aero. I'm still getting used to riding in aero at high speeds, especially when it's windy. Transition 2
Comments: My feet were sticking on the insoles of my running shoes. I should invest in some elastic laces, or take the time to put on socks. What would you do differently?: Put on socks. I got a nasty blister on top of my foot from not wearing any. Run
Comments: It was pretty warm and I was a bit dehydrated, so I backed off and ran at a comfortable pace. What would you do differently?: Drink more water. I skipped the first water stop and that was a mistake. Post race
Warm down: Drank water, ate orange slices, talked with other racers about the swarm of bees. What limited your ability to perform faster: I am pretty satisfied with how I did in this race. I just need to train more to get faster. Last updated: 2008-04-23 12:00 AM

Drove to the Y to pick up my packet, went home, drank coffee, biked back to the Y. Set up my transition area, sat around for a little while.
