Swim
Comments: Funny thing, over night the lake rose a foot because of the rain, and the buoys that had been placed the night before kind of floated all over the place. So there was a delay as they looked around for someone with a Garmin so they could reset the course...I think they set it longer than it should have been, but they did a good job on short notice....another funny thing, the water was only about 4-6 ft deep, so you could walk just about anywhere on the swim(handy for defo Transition 1
Comments: No suit stuck on heels, they had wetsuit strippers :) What would you do differently?: Not a thing, Bike
Comments: Bike was a 4 lap affair, going across the dam on Lake Heffner, then down into a residential, across the road at the bottom of the dam, and then repeat, by the 4th lap I had the course down, but with the headwind on the dam, I was really happy not to have to go around for a 5th time Transition 2
Comments: Good T2 for me, for once Run
Comments: This is where my race came apart, I was up to speed and running well, but at mile one developed a big blister on my right foot(currently it's about the size of a quarter...it really limited my ability to attack the run. What would you do differently?: Wear socks.... Post race
Event comments: This was a PR race for me in the Oly, but I would trade the PR for 30 more club points. Congrats to TriOKC they won a hard fought battle for the USAT club nationals Last updated: 2009-09-21 12:00 AM
