Pre-race routine:

walked through transition, familurizing with entrances and exits

Event warmup:

none. arrived late, just setup

Swim

750 meters
01m 54s / 100 meters

Comments:

Started off conservative and toward back of pack. Got caught up behind some traffic at first. Rocky beach exit, had slow difficult exit.

What would you do differently?:

Start closer to front of pack. Should have swam shallow to avoid walking over rocks.

Transition 1

00m 58s

Comments:

put shoes on in transition area. Took easy run up from beach into transition. Was a little winded running in, then getting suit off.

Comments:

Good ride. Held Aero position for most of the time.

Transition 2

00m 39s

Comments:

Spent a few seconds trying to get watch off the bike. Also put socks on this time.

What would you do differently?:

workout a new way to use watch or forget it. Maybe not use socks on these short runs

Run

22m 42s
3.1 miles
07m 19s min/mile

Comments:

Back a little stiff for first mile. Not nearly as bad as Quakerman, though. Kept a moderate pace at first. Loosened up nice for second mile. energy dropped off toward finish.

What would you do differently?:

get familiar with course before race. Toward end of run, lost some motivation because I didn't know where the course was going and how much further it went.

Post race

Warm down:

none. Felt much better than after QuakerMan.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not knowing run course.
