Shortened swim due to wind and chop. Course moved to north of transition.
Transition 1
  • 05m 52s
Comments:

Long run (.54mile) on sidewalk due to changed swim course. This isn't my strong point.
Was extremely hungry coming out of water so I went into my tri bag and found a harvest bar. This took some time.
What would you do differently?:

Better pre-race nutrition.

Comments:

Went out feeling fine at a moderate pace. I felt that I would pick up pace as I went along but lost my energy by the mid point. Slowed down and couldn't get back into the rythym. I was expecting to do 8:45-9:00 minute miles based on my training.
What would you do differently?:

Better pre-race nutrition.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

I don't think I ate properly the day before. Had a big breakfast and then didn't eat anything until about 4pm. The morning of the race I barely ate anything. At race start I was starving and even felt the hunger pain during the swim.
