Swim
Comments: This included a pretty long run up a hill once out of the water, which accounts for the slow time. I didn't get passed by anyone once in the water, but did pass quite a few folks. It was a "rough" swim, lots of thrashing and jockeying for position at the start. I actually like the rough and tumble, since I'm very confident in the water. I find that when I bump into people, they wind up slowing down and allow me to pass. What would you do differently?: I'd love to be the first out of the water one day, but I don't think that will ever happen. The fastest time was just over 10:41. Transition 1
Comments: T1 went smoothly. Bike
Comments: Decent bike. I was passed by 4 riders in my AG. Another must have snuck out of T1 ahead of me. Transition 2
Comments: There was no time recorded for T2! So, I had to fudge it based upon the race results. I think T2 was buried in as part of the bike leg. I approximated T2 and made sure that all the time splits added up to match the total of 1:16:35. Run
Comments: The run was hilly, much like the bike. But, it was a blast to run this sprint race after doing so many long distance tri's this season. The weather was perfect and it was fun to finish. I am pleased with my AG placement and my overall placement. Post race
Warm down: Drove 2 hours back home. What limited your ability to perform faster: My own tolerance for pain. Last updated: 2005-05-23 12:00 AM
