 Swim
Comments: This was my first time in open ocean since I was 12. Had to dodge waves and got swept under 2 times; I think I was 5th out of water in my age group - so not bad considering What would you do differently?: Learn to swim in open ocean; dive under waves and dolphin dive the end; practice open ocean swimming  Transition 1
Comments: The splits did not break down times for transiton so I am not sure how it was calculated What would you do differently?: Need to learn to get into shoes on bike and take wetsuit off faster  Bike
Comments: Ok so looking at the breakdown I know my transition time was calculated into this because the Garmin said I averaged about 19.9 mph; given the flat course I feel like my bike time was really slow What would you do differently?: Get faster on the bike - again another poor bike performance where I was at least 3-4 minutes behind....UGHHHH Transition 2
Comments: Felt fast off the bike and transitioned quick What would you do differently?: Learn to dismount moving bike. With sprained ankle though it wasnt gonna happen this race  Run
Comments: Again sprained ankle really limited my ability to hammer this part. Felt ok until the end and couldn't push it last 440 meters. Good support and lots of fluid; good crowd at the end What would you do differently?: Not have sprained ankle and push it Post race
Warm down: Ended up in medical tent icing my foot for about 15 minutes What limited your ability to perform faster: Practice open ocean swimming; not have sprained ankle 1 week before event Event comments: Again kudos to KOZ! A well organized race. Last updated: 2007-12-24 12:00 AM

Extreme Veteran 643  Connecticut | Subject: RE: Solana Beach Triathlon Molly - Nice job out there top 10 in your AG in yor second race is a good showing. The bike will come, you just need more time in the sport building the biek endurance. I had the same problem last year in my fiest year it was always my bike that let me down. Great job and get some rest to heal up that ankle!
