Swim
Comments: I swear I may be the only person on the planet to swim SLOWER in a wetsuit. What would you do differently?: Train. I've got to stop taking my swimming for granted. Transition 1
Comments: It seemed like a long way from the water to the transition area, in part because we had to make this very roundabout loop to get there.... What would you do differently?: I need more practice getting in and out of the wetsuit Bike
Comments: I suck at hills. No really, suck BADLY at them. I'd be cruising along on the flats at 20+mph and the minute I hit a hill it would drop like a rock. I'm not good at shifting when I have to change gears in the front What would you do differently?: practice hills and shifting, and not forget my gatoraid. Transition 2
Comments: Good but slow. I didn't realize it took me that long.... Downed some clif shot blocks. What would you do differently?: Move faster. Run
Comments: I walked a lot of it. My shin ached from the minute I started and my HR goes up too fast when I try to run uphill. What would you do differently?: Train more. A LOT more. Post race
Warm down: Walked around for a while, then Janel helped me stretch. What limited your ability to perform faster: My fat ass. Last updated: 2006-02-10 12:00 AM

WW Bagel with a little butter during the drive. It was yummy. Unfortunately I realized about halfway there that the thing I forgot (because there always seems to be one) was my gatorade for the bike. I had about 16 oz of water and that was it.
Isn't getting a wet suit on enough warmup?
