 Swim
Comments: Included about 150yds up a sandy beach. Went better than I expected given the volume of swim training. I have not been able to swim much because of my swim coaching responsibilities, but surprised myself with the time. Was quite tired and sore by the end. I did not make any horrific mistakes with my navigation, but was constatnly going towards the right. What would you do differently?: Swim straighter, train more.  Transition 1
Comments: I dinked around too long putting my Garmin on. After I pulled off my first flying mount. It went pretty well. What would you do differently?: Figure out a better way for the Garmin.  Bike
Comments: Did not go as well as I had hoped. I've been on a tri bike for the first time for the last 3 weeks. I think a combination of increased cycling volume, new bike, new position, and general fatigue may have caused it. Or I simply am not good at cycling. What would you do differently?: Not sure. Transition 2
Comments: Went very well. I'm happy with it. What would you do differently?: Nothing.  Run
Comments: Went better than I hoped; my Garmin recorded 4.12 miles at 7:30, so I was quite happy with that. I have been running a lot the past 6 months and I think it is starting to pay off. What would you do differently?: Nothing. Post race
Warm down: Water, powerade, and towels. What limited your ability to perform faster: Nothing. Event comments: Overall I was quite happy. I beat my best time, from last year, by 10 minutes. I think I'm heading in the right direction, as long as the bike comes together. Last updated: 2011-06-07 12:00 AM

I figured I should join the party with my first race report. Woke up at 5:15. Forced down half of a bagel and peanut butter at the race site. Got all of the gear set up and ready to go.
Ran about 1 mile, with some race-pace strides. Rode the bike for about 3 miles, with some race-pace efforts. Set up the transition and went down to water. Did a few drills, sculling, and race-paced swimming. Got out of water and stretched.
