Comments:

Stiff from bike. Stroke was awkward and fatiguing. Another swimmer intentionally pulled on my leg I guess to pull himself ahead. I lost at least 30 seconds from that.
What would you do differently?:

relax more and focus on rolling more instead of pulling so hard
Transition 1
  • 00m
Comments:

T1 was running shoes off into bike shoes. Transition time added to bike so I don't know for sure how long I took. Felt smooth and quick.
What would you do differently?:

nothing

What would you do differently?:

start out slightly easier. may need to adjust cleat position.

  • 00m
Comments:

I was wobbly and I undid the bottom 2 straps on shoe but not the top one. I pulled on shoe several time before I realized why it wouldn't come off.
What would you do differently?:

Vizualize transiton while moving to rack.

Comments:

I was puffing the whole time. I left watch w/bike so no HR data.
What would you do differently?:

Not sure. Running w/o the HR monitor didn't seem to hurt my time
Post race
Warm down:

ate a banana

What limited your ability to perform faster:

calf cramps on bike, stiff in pool

Event comments:

The only saving grace of this race is it is small enough to get away with minimal staff and there was chip timing. Volunteers few and far between. Volunteers sloppy about recording time at finish line.
