I realyl felt great about this swim...I did ok drafting and also ignoring hte people swimming zigzag. I was able to keep a straight line and finish strong!

nothing

I had poractiuced without socks, so I jsut threw soem water on my feet nad grabbed my shoees..the left one got caught under my heel, but I fixed it fast and ran out. Although I had issues mounting..but finally got on and started riding. A friend was coming out of T1 at the same time and someone told him he forgot his helmet and he said he didn't have one. Um...I know its your first tiem, but didn't you read the rules????

Practice mounting

Good tailwind on the way out and I was flying (for me)..felt strong up until muile 8..my legs were killing..I really need to ride more!!

train more

Awesome transition. I love taking my shoes off on he bike so i can jsut rack and throw my runnign shoes on. I have a freindthat races and we are so similar in our times, but she is a bit faster on the bike, so she always beats me at races by 30-45 seconds..but now that i take my feet out of my shoes on the bike, I pass her in transtion. Yay!

nothing..great t2

I felt good on the run, saw soem friends cheering me on (I could hear them say htat I looked in good shape on the run) For hte last 100 yds i ran as hard as I could since I could hear feet running behind men and i wasn't sure if htey ere in my age group

walked aound and saw friends and family. Waited for my niece and nephews kids race to start!

My 7 year old niece and 6 year old nephew did a 50 yd dash, 1 mile bike and 50 yd sprint again. They did so great and had a blasty (well expect my niece had a belly ache half way thru the bike and didn't want to finish the run, but my sister carried her to the finsh line and she walked thru)


I like this race, its close to home and always a fun time. Oh and I beat my friend this race by 1:35...yay!!! (not that i race to beat her, but it still felt good)
