Pre-race routine:

Ate breakfast and out the door. Loved how this race started at 9:30AM and not super early. Especially because I had an hour and 15 minute drive.
Event warmup:

Normal. Rode bike to check mechanics, off on a short jog and then swam about half the swim course.
Swim
  • 09m 54s
  • 586 yards
  • 01m 41s / 100 yards
Comments:

Terrible swim for me. Never got into a groove. I was all alone for most of the swim until someone swam up on me (literally). I never understood how someone can do that when there is no traffic around me. Oh well.
What would you do differently?:

More time in the pool. Lacked the pool time thus far this season.
Transition 1
  • 01m 38s
Comments:

Some whack job was screaming at everyone as they mounted their bikes. Kind of freaked me out.

Comments:

Not a great ride but not terrible either. Would have liked to avg. around 22mph
What would you do differently?:

Pushed the pace. 10 miles is really short, so I was just getting into it at the end.
Transition 2
  • 01m 8s
Run
  • 21m 33s
  • 3.11 miles
  • 06m 56s  min/mile
Comments:

Beginning was slow for me but no one passed me till the end. Got chicked by a super fast girl in a USA suit and another great runner.
What would you do differently?:

Let it out more. I never got to full speed for me. I was looking to run a 6:45 pace.
Post race
Warm down:

Stretch and walked around.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training time and I am still a tad too heavy. But it's the first race for me this season.

Event comments:

Great race by Max Performance. Wish the traffic directors were a bit better, but all in all it was a very well put together.
