What can I say? I swam fast. Could have been faster but I was weaving in and out of traffic. At 6'5" 245 I don't want to be an a-hole and punch and kick my way through. Overall satisifed, this is just part of the sport, right? I figure I could have maybe gotten down to 22:30 or so had this been a straight shot minus traffic.

Maybe get some tinted goggles? Sun was bright.

OK. Had the shoes on the pedals but some minor issues getting into them. Not a bad transition. Since I didn't have breakfast I took a little time to get some gel and water in.

Not much- other than remember the Glide to get the wetsuit off faster. Pretty good though.

Fine ride. Opted to use the aero bars very little- after last weeks back disaster I didn't want to ruin my run. Felt wonderful on the bike, I LOVE this course. Never did the 1st part where the road takes you to the divers area- it was pretty rough surface. Overall pretty happy with this.
Passed by Mollyland @ about mile 21, always nice to see a friendly face. Felt bad she was having GI issues.

Remove the aerobars and save the weight if I'm not going to use them. Or get fitted would be an even better idea! Pretty happy though.

Took my time here. I wanted to make sure I was going to be composed for the run. Did not want a repeat of S-M-D. Could have probably pushed it a little harder, but oh well.

Don't know....

OK, this looks bad. But consider after exiting transition I stopped at the port-a-pot to pee. Also took the chiropractors advice and sprayed biofreeze all over my back. Pulling off a soaking wet racesuit took some time... I'd say I was in there for a good 4 minutes, making my run pace really about 10:20? Still not great, but I'll take it. Out portion was uphill and had to walk up some hills. About mile 2 saw Cassi from CAC cheering us on- that was pretty cool! Felt good- spectators make me happy :) Finally got my legs and feet at about mile 3. Turnaround was great- the volunteers were spraying water. That was pretty refreshing. 2nd half of run went well- I don't have a Garmin but I'm willing to bet I was down well under 10 on the pace. Finished really strong, trying to beat the clock. Did it! 2:59:18- goal was 3 hours!

Run more, run faster.

Walked around- found Drewulu and Mollyland. Had some pictures taken. Welcomed Jon back in. Ate a great lunch and drank a beer :)
Little stretching and laughing with friends.


Not eating. Although I don't think it made a huge difference. I need to brick more. Thinking I may get a Garmin for motivation. Have to sell the wife on that idea :)


Love this race! Had an awesome time, and it's always fun to race with my buddies. Thinking I may do the Crazy-Back-To-Back next year.
