Swim
Comments: Took goggles off in first 100m, fogged up. Swam like a turtle with head up entire time. What would you do differently?: work on breathing and keeping face in water Transition 1
Comments: All was good except the sudden stop by officers for traffic to cross at the start of the course. I took my time and didn't run obviously I could take off time here. What would you do differently?: Just speed up Bike
Comments: Once on the course the loop was good, only a couple flats around me. Speed was better than expected and I actually enjoyed being around other cyclist for the first time. It wasn't too hot yet and the wind helped with that. I think this was my best part averaging over 20mph for the entire course on my X bike What would you do differently?: Push a little harder and not stay behind people to long. Transition 2
Comments: Again took my time, drank a little before heading out for the run. What would you do differently?: Just speed up Run
Comments: Dead leg run, though I didn't stop I could have pushed myself a lot more. This is easily the biggest overall improvement I can make. What would you do differently?: Run with a purpose Post race
Warm down: just walk around a bit drink some water eat an orange and relax with my family. What limited your ability to perform faster: Mentality and breathing. It was my first course and now that it's complete I feel my confidence will go up which will help with my mentality. Breathing is more of an issue in the water and thus I will train more for that. I hadn't swam but a couple time 3 weeks prior to race and never swam properly just recreationally before. Event comments: This was the perfect atmosphere and location for my first race. The post race was nice and I met a lot of good people. Best part of the race "When my 2 boys ran across the finish line with me" Last updated: 2011-08-04 12:00 AM
