I did pretty good for only swimming 2 times this year which were only because those were my only 2 races. LOL. I was really tired though and was just kind of cruising along. My arms got really tired also.

Since it was cold I decided to where arm warmers. It took a while to put them on because they were damp. I wiped my arms dry with a towel first but it still took a bit longer because it was wet. Wetsuit was stuck on heels. It took a while to get off also because I was dizzy and trying to get my balance when I bent over to take the wetsuit off.

I still would have taken the extra time to put on the arm warmers cause it was worth it. Maybe next time it might be easier and faster to put on a jacket instead of some tight arm warmers.

It took a a minute or two of me sitting up on my bike to get my arm warmers fully on. Course was really wet but I was still pleased with my time. Also at the end of the race I got my bike and realized I had a flat. Good thing it was a slow one.

This felt like my best T2. I felt really fast. I racked my bike, already had race number on from T1, put my shoes on, took helmet off, and picked up my hat and ran. It was great. I put a good amount of body glide on my shoes so I think that helped me put them on. I had the fastest time in T2. It was awesome. The next fastest was 1:07. I also kept my arm warmers on for the run.

The only thing I would do different is to undo my chin strap while running with my bike.

This was the best run I have ever had. The marathon training really showed in my race. I have been training really hard and it paid off. The first mile was really fast. It was in the low 6:00's and then I backed it off a little until the turn around. Then at the turn around I picked it back up and just slowly kept running faster and faster. This seemed to work out great for me. I was really really pushing it and I could feel it in my legs the last 1/2 mile. I didn't have anything left to throw in a sprint which was good becasue that means I gave it all I had. I took my arm warmers off during the first mile cause I started to get hot. This was the best run of tri carrer so far. I was really really excited.

Nothing.

This was a really good race. Post race activities and awards were good.
