Swim
Comments: I still can't swim, but I'm getting better at surviving the water. What would you do differently?: Nothing... learn to actually swim... :-) Transition 1
Comments: Had a pretty good T1. Wet suit got stuck a bit on my calfs, but only lost minimal time. What would you do differently?: Run slightly faster from beach to transition area Bike
Comments: Made up lots of time on the bike. Since the bike course was basically a lane divided into two bike lanes (one in each direction), there was times when it was difficult to pass. What would you do differently?: I could've gone slightly harder when I had tail wind, but only by a small amount Transition 2
Comments: Had a very good T2. Took some extra time to grab a last drink before heading out. What would you do differently?: Get a different hydration system so I drink more on the bike Run
Comments: Had a hard time getting my rhythm going and never got to my normal pace What would you do differently?: Hydrate better on the bike Post race
Warm down: None. What limited your ability to perform faster: Poor hydration and insufficient sleep (next time we need to stay by the race if it is an early start and longer drive). Event comments: Sun events do a great job with high quality details like putting all team members in the same area in transition. The delay of the start was to make sure that a broken down car was removed from race course and that the coolant that leaked out was properly removed. Good decision to delay! Although I managed to get 9th in AG my wife got 2nd in her AG... she beat me again... and yes, very proud of her! Last updated: 2011-08-01 12:00 AM
