Transition 1
Comments: It was a long transition from the pool and wadingthorugh the kiddie pool slowed me down. What would you do differently?: I was a little disorganized with my helmet, glasses and gloves. I need to practice this more so it is just a natural routine. Bike
What would you do differently?: Be aure to pre-ride the course so I know when to push it. This is the first course I haven't had a chance to pre-ride and I didn't like not knowing what was up the road. Transition 2
Comments: Overall this was a pretty good transition for me. It could be a little quicker What would you do differently?: The dismount line was on an incline. I was worried about mnot getting un clipped so I unclipped a littel early adn then struggled up the hill. Run
Comments: The hill was mentally hard because you went down it first and then knew it was coming. What would you do differently?: Be mentally tougher on the run. Post race
Warm down: Walked around a bit and chatted with a couple of other BTers that were at the race. Grabbed a bagel and some Oreos and packed up my stuff. What limited your ability to perform faster: Run fitness and mental toughness Event comments: I hope to complete this race again next year. It was well organized and fun.

I got up late and ate my oatmeal in the car. Got to the site a little late so I felt a little rushed. I got my transition area set up and then wetn to pick up my timing chip and get body marked. Then I coulld relax and focus on feeding and hydration. I drank 12 oz of Accelerade and 24 oz water between getting up in the morning and race time. I also had a Hammer Gel about 30 minutes pre-race.
It was a short warm up because they didn't really have a warm up pool. I ran just long enough to break a nice sweat and stretched. About 20 minutes before the swim start. I took a shower to get wet since I wasn't sure if I was going to get in the pool before starting the swim. They had the diving well open so i got in and tried to warm up a little. It was hard though as 3 strokes and I was to the other wall.
