Pre-race routine:

Arrived a late and had to rush to get my transition area ready. Met the Co B.T. crew, Stacers, luv to ride, Alpine, Matt and Shannon. Didn't get a warm up in.

Event warmup:

None. But did stop to get Gatorade and slammed a Powerbar. No bonking for me.

Comments:

Started off a little skittish. Kept getting hit in the head. Hard to get my rhythm. But after I rounded the first bouy all was good. I turned it on and left the back.

What would you do differently?:

Go a little bit harder on the first 200. Do a warm up.

Comments:

Took it REALLY easy on the run. Wanted to try the legs out. This was the first run since the bonk and I didn't want to push things. I felt a little cramp in the hammy's but nothing I couldn't handle by breathing.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Maybe push a little harder.

Post race

Warm down:

Drinking Gatorade and talking to Bters.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My fat butt. Also I have to find a race pace. All my races I treat like training and I don't go out as fast as I should.

Course:	Well this was funny. I was doing the short course and they had a short course set up with a turnaround for a 2.5K but there was no 2.5K so I had to go around again to complete a 5K. Ughhh. But I didn't quit at 2.5 finshed the race like a trooper. But that meant I had to run on all sandy and trail.
