Swim
Comments: I felt good. I think I took it easy because I didn't want to burn out early. I could have given it more. I stayed on course fairly well but I could have shaved a little time by cutting the turn tighter What would you do differently?: Have more confidence in my training. stay more to the inside Transition 1
Comments: still didn't so the shoe thingy but it didn't seem to slowme down that much What would you do differently?: try shoe thingy Bike
Comments: I felt like I did better than I did. I felt really strong on the bike and was disappointed with my time. What would you do differently?: I'm not sure why I'm so slow this year. I need more miles. I need to get some country roads where I can time trail a little Transition 2
Comments: I took it kind of easy to catch my breath Run
Comments: really crappy run. I had a side stitch most of the way that I couldn't shake- that started the negative self talk and the doubt which started the desire to give in and walk the rest of the way. I made myself run but it was hard. and slow. I felt like a ton of bricks. I hated getting passed by so many girls that I was ahead of for so long! What would you do differently?: ??? I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong. I just can't get the strength on the run to be faster. Post race
Warm down: didn't fall over What limited your ability to perform faster: 90% mental, 10% training Event comments: I'm always dissapointed when there's no medal. I love a medal to say I finished! I wish there were more spectators cheering us on. I wish the lady standing at the hill wouldn't have told me it was flat the rest of the way. C'est la vie. Last updated: 2005-07-10 12:00 AM
