 Swim
Comments: Took first hit in the jaw with a heel but remained calm and had a realy good swim for me. What would you do differently?: probably should start a little closer to the front of the wave. Wasted some time sorting through the first hundred meters.  Transition 1
Comments: Couldn't get my wetsuit off, again. Wasted too much time with sock issues. What would you do differently?: Use this offseason to practice without socks.  Bike
Comments: Staying in aero and on the big chainring for most of the race really startd to bother my left hip. What would you do differently?: Get properly fitted to the bike. Wasn't an issue on the hilly courses in NH and VT in my fist two races. Transition 2
Comments: No issues  Run
Comments: Felt good right away, hip issues on bike did not carryover. Was given a Heed by accident instead of water at mile 2, didn't sit well. Fought off some mild cramping around mile 3. What would you do differently?: Drink a little more on the bike and bring a gel for the run. Post race
Warm down: walk and stretch What limited your ability to perform faster: More practice riding on flatter terrain for more top end speed. Event comments: The volunteers were fantastic! Very well organized and plenty of people and police to direct traffic. Nice T-shirt. Profile Album Last updated: 2008-05-31 12:00 AM

Champion 19812 MA | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon Sweet race! Congrats on a super race and your first Oly It was great to meet you this weekend! Hope you figure out what is up with your hip on the bike..maybe it is from a more flat course where you could stay in aero more? |

Elite 2423 | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon Nice work out there, and great run split considering your hip problems. I would also wager that it is an improper fitting for riding aero. Your hips might be too stretched out or compressed? Looks like a scenic race. |

Expert 1060 Weymouth, MA | Subject: RE: Cranberry Country Triathlon How to crank Chris. Yeah, get that bike fit, hammer some flats, and you'll be breaking an hour on this course! Great to meet you. Maybe we can get some hilly NH rides in this fall. |
