Was a good swim, pretty consistent but I got weaker in the last 5 min
My strategy worked again, dont start all the way at the front but rather behind the biggest fight and then roll up from behind when the field had thinned out

No OWS the night before...

Was a fairly fast transition by my standard...;-) Time was #29 in AG
Had a little bit of a problem with the wetsuit. At that time I had a very slight cramp in the right leg, but was no problem in the rest of the race
Had one gel in T1 plus a sip Gatorade

More Body Glide?

In hindsight, I feel that I did not push as hard as I could have, even though the pace is pretty good for me.
The wind on the long straigth sections sucked
As always, I was constantly being passed, especially the first 15 miles, that sucked!!!

Get a faster bike, get faster legs!!

Got another gel and some Gatorade
I had put my hat and race number on top of my shoes so had to put these on with my bike shoes on, need to change that, I hate walking or even standing in my bike shoes

See above, put shoes on top of hat and race number

Started out with a very good pace, the first two miles has an average of 7:52 and felt fairly good
Running through the campground was great because there was no monotony!
I had some problems at the second aid station, must have drunk the Gatorade too fast or too much, my stomach was upset for the next 5 min or so.

Nothing really. Note that this is a 10k PR for me!!

Drank a LOT, walked around and got my stuff pretty quickly. Had only a yoghurt right after the race. My stomach was pretty upset right after the run


Weight, bike


Very much like the race! The distances seem to be fairly close to standard, maybe a little short on the swim and run. The flat course turns out great times, I came in about 4 min faster than I thought based on distance and improved my oly PR by more than 10 minutes. I will come back next year!
