Swim
Comments: I stayed on course pretty well. I swam well once I got past the initial panic of swimming in black, mucky, weedy water. What would you do differently?: Figure out how to warm up before I get into the water. Or, figure out how to settle in faster. I can do this! Transition 1
Comments: In and out quick, mainly because I was a lot closer to the exit. I did have to pee. Didn't seem to affect my time too much. What would you do differently?: Not much. Maybe remember to drink more water before getting on the bike. Bike
Comments: I did okay. My left foot, left fingers, and right shoulder blade went numb. Maybe I need to look at my bike seat and lower it. What would you do differently?: More training rides! I'd like to see an average of 20 on these rides, but I max out at that speed. It may not be possible with my current bike. Transition 2
Comments: Went pretty fast through this. Again, I think location was everything. Run
Comments: I dogged it. I ran slow and thought I was going to cry on the second to last turn. We run in a big square, so that turn means you're almost there. I was thinking too much about the fact that I hadn't trained as well as I should have. I had to brush those thoughts aside. I did eventually, but it was not easy. What would you do differently?: Train more! My run time was less than stellar. I can live with it, but I really wanted to run a good race. Post race
Warm down: My warm down was Connor driving me home. It was awesome! What limited your ability to perform faster: Training. I just didn't put in all the required time/miles. I still did okay though. Last updated: 2010-06-13 12:00 AM

Got up late. Slept in a bit, but got to do my morning yoga.
None. I need one since I always get halfway through the swim and am then ready to start.
