Swim
Comments: I have never swam this far in one shot before. I was impressed with how relaxed I was. I felt very happy the whole swim. What would you do differently?: Nothing! Learn to swim faster of course. Transition 1
Comments: How does one put on the helmet and take off a wetsuit at the same time? I need extra limbs. What would you do differently?: Nothing. I was taking my time and getting my equilibrium after my longest ever swim. Bike
Comments: I was recovering from the flu and could NOT get my legs to move faster. I felt incredibly sluggish. I made very few passes and this is by far my slowest race pace ever. This segment felt frustrating and I became extremely fatigued and bored. What would you do differently?: Not get the flu? Transition 2
Comments: I was happy the bike segment was over at last and was hitting a wall. Run
Comments: This was my worst run EVER. I was at the "wall" before I began. The flu took it out of me big time. I felt overheated the entire time and had to walk several times because I felt dangerously hot. My pace is so slow--it is a good 5 minutes slower than my half marathon pace! What would you do differently?: Allow more recovery time after illness Post race
Warm down: I felt awful...near heat stroke, sick to my stomach, and fatigued. I will not undertake a triathlon so soon after a flu ever again! What limited your ability to perform faster: I had been sick with the flu for a week and had only recovered two days earlier. I lost 5 lbs. from vomiting and was incredibly weak. Event comments: I love "Your Cause Sports." They are very friendly and not at all harsh and strict like the Aflac folks. Last updated: 2010-07-12 12:00 AM
