 Swim
Comments: Goggles were too dark and foggy so i didn't site well at all Probably swam an extra 50 yards Never got into a rhythm Didn't breath bilaterally well What would you do differently?: Different goggles or no goggles. Focus more on breathing/siting timing...in other words work out a number of strokes for every site and stick to it.  Transition 1
Comments: First time having shoes clipped in already and it was worth it  Bike
Comments: Needed to take more fluid. I need to get aero bar bottle to encourage drinking more. Felt strong overall If I knew the course better i could have blown through a lot more corners and kept my momentum going up hills around the corner. Took Clif Shot toward end of bike What would you do differently?: Try to ride/drive the course before hand if possible. Transition 2
Comments: Got out of shoes too soon...otherwise it was pretty good Glad i had race number on and tucked into jammers the whole time. One less thing to worry about. What would you do differently?: Not much...just go faster  Run
Comments: Felt good considering how little i've been able to train on the running side so far. What would you do differently?: Train more...volume and speed work. Want to get some Zoots now after hearing Bill talk about how much he liked his. Post race
Warm down: Walked arround What limited your ability to perform faster: Lack of training and lack of practice in open water/goggles issue. Event comments: Preparation was key...walking through checklist several times the night before helped me sleep and relax. Last updated: 2009-06-27 12:00 AM
