Swim
Comments: The first 100Y I maintained my form and was doing great, then everything fell apart and the swim turned into a struggle to get through it What would you do differently?: More swim training, especially in open water Transition 1
Comments: Not too bad What would you do differently?: Not sure, I don't want to do flying mounts Bike
Comments: I really gassed it on the bike, I am still shaken up from my run-in with a vicious pit bull a few weeks ago, almost to the point of not wanting to do this race.About 6 people were heading out on the bike I and rushed to get out with them. I kept up with everyone, because the theory in my head was if I stayed with people I had less of a chance of getting attacked if a vicious dog showed up. The bike route passed some questionable looking homes so that scared me a little.I followed the rules and stayed at least 2 bike lengths behind another racer. I pushed a pace faster than I was comfortable with, but this was a race so it was ok to give it all I had. What would you do differently?: I'm happy with my bike time, I just with the pit bull thing didn't happen a few weeks about, it has really shaken me up and I am having trouble getting pass it. Transition 2
Comments: My fastest T2 time ever, it was the first time using my new Zoot Tempos in a race and they save a lot of time and blisters What would you do differently?: nothing Run
Comments: My fastest run ever in a triathlon. I could really feel the effects of gassing it on the bike, but I just kept pushing it. What would you do differently?: Nothing, I was happy with how I was able to push it on the run Post race
Warm down: Ate some food, met some really cool people. Place 3rd female overall, so waited around for the award ceremony What limited your ability to perform faster: swimming, need to train more in it Last updated: 2011-02-10 12:00 AM

Woke up at 4 am, had coffee and small breakfast, drove an hour to race site, got nervous since bike route was on some questionable country roads.
Stretching, foam rolled my IT bands before leaving, my ITBS is getting much better.
