Swim
Comments: I guess my swim was ok. I got winded coming up on the last turn marker and had some trouble breathing so I turned over on my back and rested a bit before continuing. I do not know if it was because my breathing just got out of rythmn or I was going too fast, but the speed was not overly fast for me. Transition 1
Comments: I thought I did ok. This seems like a descent t1 for me, but I seem to be way slower than everyone else. What would you do differently?: One of these days, I may work on transitions. They are not really that important to me though. They have nothing to do with exercise. Bike
Comments: My Garmin had my bike at 20.47 mph and a distance of 11.33. It had my run slower than the official results. It all comes out in the wash. The total time was right. Transition 2
Comments: Again, I thought it was ok, but slower than everyone else. Run
Comments: My Garmin had my run slower by about a minute and the bike faster by about a minute. My calves got to cramping right off the back. I suppose this is why people do bricks. I thought I could run through them and they would quit, but they kept getting worse so I had to stop and stretch out my calves. I wish I had done that right off the bat because my calves are still sore two days later. They get really tight anytime I sit for 30 minutes or so. They are fine once I move around. I rode 63 miles on the bike the next morning and they were good while riding but they hurt so bad I could hardly walk when I got out of bed. What would you do differently?: Do some bricks and stop and stretch sooner if they start cramping this badly again. Post race
Event comments: It was a good race. Well organized. I had lots of friends there which makes it a good time. Rode down there with Brian (trailrunner)which was a good time. Met Tommy's wife, Dee and Karen's husband, Tom, Nora's boyfriend, and Sarah's sister and boyfriend. It was a good day... Life is good... Last updated: 2009-03-02 12:00 AM
