Swim
Comments: water temp was a little cool, went with wetsuit, good out swim, sighting was dead on, the way back I did lose course a bit, was siting towards wrong bouy. did overheat a bit with suit on, but glad I wore it What would you do differently?: I need to start to learn how to draft... Transition 1
Comments: got suit off the best I have ever, need to start getting helmet on while I do that. got out of transtion just ahead of Dave and Norm and some others.... Bike
Comments: as soon as I got out of transtion I step on bike and my right pedeal fell off... dam, dam dam, now I am going to lose Dave... went out hard to see if I can make up any ground, ooo, I see the tall lanky fella up ahead climing on his bike (lost his chain x2) sorry to hear that, heeeeee. Was able to keep him in sight the rest of the way. he was still in trans when I pulled in What would you do differently?: a little thing called bike manintance, Transition 2
Comments: good dismount from bike, dave just exiting T2, norm's bike not in T2 yet (he took a wrong turn and extented it 3 miles), did have a little trobble racking bike took me 3 tries to get it to stay. running shoes on good. Run
Comments: was close enough to dave I though I could catch him the first mile, put up a 7:40, didnt make up any ground. hit the turn around and seemed to be closing a little, mile 2 7:19, very happy with that. caught him by mile 3 and just tried not to puke and hold him off, was very hot and humided on the run. Post race
Warm down: jumped in the lake, had some flapjacks and talked What limited your ability to perform faster: x-tra weight I am carring this year Event comments: was hoping to place top 3 (especially with norm out of the picture) but didn’t make it, dam... was a very nice place for a race, very family friendly, maybe next year I will bring the camper and camp out and make it a family weekend.
