Just an ok swim. Thought I swam a lot faster than this though. There was a boat in the water pushing waves on the swimmers. Kinda sucked but just dealt with it and breathed the opposite side of the waves.

Swim harder! I always swim at a comfortable pace. I think I need to step out of my comfort zone and swim like it's a race

Long run up to transition. Everything went as planned.

I love this course. It's just a fast course with a enough hills to break up the drafters. Caught a guy on a Cervelo and he was sucking my wheel so I yelled at him. That's become my ritual. Broke the hour right at the 25 mile mark so I took the oppurtunity to get a gel and a sip of Infinit in before the run.

Nothing

Not a whole lot to talk about. Got in and got out as quick as I could.

Speed up!

Got off the bike and just hammered what I could without popping. Picked off a couple of guys. Got passed by another that I caught just going into T2. He was in a previous wave so I already 10 minutes on him. Fast runner though.

I'm happy with this cuz running isn't really my strong point, but it's getting there.

Went and soaked in the lake a little bit. I figured it was the best thing I could do as I was planning on racing again that afternoon.


My swim was definitely mid-pack. So that's a weakness I need to work on.


I like this course. The race itself is just ok. It never seems very well organized. Meg and I went to Whole Foods for lunch and headed to Denver for race #2.
