Damn Left turns, I swam way out of my way.

more sighting- it was pitiful, but I felt smooth and fresh!

Not great, hit a cone. It was a pretty long run in my bike shoes-about 100yds?

Not much, practice transitions I guess.

I need to bike more, 37th is weak. I need to do more spinning with the crazywoman-Susan.

Hit the bike a little harder. Overall I grade my bike average, but mostly because of where I placed in this portion. I felt good and was faster than i have been so at least i am improving. Bike is definatley somewhere I need more work.

I thought this was good, rubbed my feet-toes were numb.

Get my feet out of shoes next time-more transition practice

Mile 1-really rough start with numb toes
Mile 2- still pretty tight legs
Mile 3-felt great, good pace

Push more in second mile and start my kick coming home a little sooner

jogging, stretching


Other than just training more-which I certainly need, I need more swimming outdoors to practice navigation, Lot's more time in saddle( longer rides and speed work), and some transition-specific practice.


I thought this was a goiod race. Great for beginners, and great for a short first race of the year. A little cold for me, but what a beautiful day. We had a great time and will definatley look at this in 2010 as a perfect opener.
