Swim
Comments: If it wasn't for the LLLOOOOONNNNNGGGGG wait for the ladies at the end of line to start the race, I would say it was a great way to swim. Maybe they need to limit the amount of participants??? What would you do differently?: nothing Transition 1
Comments: Short jog from T1 to bike mount. Sock got stuck, but ended up being 3/34. What would you do differently?: Practice, practice, practice Bike
Comments: Packed a baby washcloth in my bento bag for my ever-running nose. It worked great! Also had 3 Blocks on the ride. What would you do differently?: Learn that I can push it more than I thought. Transition 2
Comments: passed someone on the run back to T2. I felt rude, but this was a race! What would you do differently?: nothing! Run
Comments: I felt like I wasn't going very fast, but apparently I was. What would you do differently?: nothing. Post race
Warm down: Returned my chip, grabbed some food and went to meet Steve for his start! I was able to keep him company in line for about 15 minutes while he waited to start. What limited your ability to perform faster: Heat, humidity. I thought that I may have eaten/drank too much on the bike, but it all worked out ok. Event comments: Again, it was a long start for some and could have used 1 more drink station on the run--it was so hot and humid by the time the men started. (It was 3 hours of continuous TT swim starts.) Everything workd like clockwork and HFP did a fine job of management. I will be back next year! Last updated: 2010-03-18 12:00 AM

Spent the night at the in-laws and was expecting a restless night being in different surroundings and with my kids fighting before bed. I ended up sleeping well--probably because this was my DH's first tri (so he was nervous), and in my mind this was a training run for my A race.
Bags were packed and waiting by the door so we could just up and leave. Ate a pb sandwich and a banana, had some coffee and made food for the DH.
Picked a good end spot and set up transition, helped Steve out, too. Got marked then took a little jog around the parking lot.
