Swim
Comments: My leg got tangled in the starting buoy line....it took a few kicks to get loose, but it definitely slowed me down and rattled me. It took about 100 - 150 yds to settle down and get into a nice rhythm....as soon as I relaxed the swim was fine....breathing was good and I really enjoyed it. What would you do differently?: Not be close to the starting buoy and try to be more focused so I'm able to be more relaxed. Transition 1
Comments: My transitions are not very strong.....was just concentrating on getting out of the suit and getting ready for the bike. Took too much time with the suit and getting moving on the bike. If I was in contention for a podium spot, I'd be pissed with the slow transition.....today, I'm just happy I made it to T1 :) What would you do differently?: Be faster!! Bike
Comments: It took about a mile or so to feel comfortable on the bike, but once I was comfortable I was able to pick up some very good speed. Felt great and was very happy with the ride!! Transition 2
Comments: Again, not the fastest transition.....switching the shoes and getting on the knee brace slowed me down, but I felt much more comfortable and relaxed on this transition than I did on the first one!! What would you do differently?: Be faster!! Run
Comments: my legs did not respond as quickly as I would have like on the switch from bike to run.....but all things considered....things went well. I felt good after the first mile and was able to pick up the pace all the way to the finish! Post race
Warm down: Drank water and walked to cool down...no stretching which is something I should have done, but the walking afterwards felt good!! Last updated: 2010-02-03 12:00 AM
