So I told myself that I would just take the swim nice and easy and not take off too fast. Started the swim and went nice and easy like planned. Felt like a fish in a small tank going back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.

Go harder, but that is the offseason plan!

Transition was smooth, a little longer than what I wanted but it was still good. I grabbed little red x aka black betty, jumped on and took off for the rolling hills and manure piles that is Whitewater

not go as slow??

There were some small hills but nothing too horrible. The headwind and gusts made the bike really tough! Unfortunately most of the course seemed to be into the headwind! I was planning on just hammering the bike, would have worked if it hadnt been for the wind. Overall the bike went pretty well.

Tell mother nature to not have a constant headwind? Hammer harder!

Came into t2, and jumped off the bike, ran to my spot, threw the shoes on, and took off

nothing

Well, this was my first cross country run experience.....to say the least it was interesting! After about the first half mile, my calves began to get tight and cramp. Took some time to walk and stretch them out and began running again. This course was all over the place, up and down and all around. I definitely need to get some more experience running off road!! The calves were hurting pretty good due to the off roadness of the course, so I ended up walking a lot of the course.....boo!

Run more and get more experience on the cross country courses.

Grabbed some food, took a nice walk around to cool off and relax. I was going to get a massage but some lady decided it was cool to lay down and take my place......


Running off road kinda threw me for a loop and was tough!


Good race, Im sure I will be doing the early bird and late bird next year!
