Swim
  • 08m 9s
  • 400 yards
  • 02m / 100 yards
Comments:

Not a super fast time but the 300 yard run after the swim ate up some time. Didn't lose more than 30 seconds on the top 10 guys.

What would you do differently?:

Not much
Transition 1
  • 00m 51s
Comments:

Still haven't done the shoes on transitions. I need to stop putting it off, I'm losing 15 to 30 seconds in each race.
Bike
  • 32m 10s
  • 13.6 miles
  • 25.37 mile/hr
Comments:

Hammered all the way through. Garmin's avg showed 24.7 and the course was a bit short. Still, very happy with the ride.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, maybe push harder at the end. Lost time with my shoes out of the straps and getting ready for transitions about a half mile too early.
Transition 2
  • 00m 42s
Comments:

Well, my conscience can be cleared because Stuart dropped his garmin as he entered transition 5 seconds ahead of me and I stopped and grabbed it for him. He was super appreciative and it made the victory that much more rewarding.

Run

  • 3.1 miles
  • 06m 29s  min/mile
Comments:

Ran just hard enough. Exhausted at the end. Passed Stuart with a mile left and didn't look back (figuratively - definitely looked back a lot).


What would you do differently?:

Post race
Warm down:

Sprint to get the camera to take pictures of Courtney.
