Comments:

Not sure if this was my wave since Jack failed to announce who was supposed to be in the 2nd wave. Figured it was since there were other old guys there but I started in the back of the pack and had to weave thru the crowd and laggers from the first wave.
What would you do differently?:

Start further to the front.

messed around getting running shoes on too long.
Run
  • 13m 21s
  • 2 miles

Comments:

tweaked hamstring about 1/2 way into run and dialed it back some. Think the bike may have instigated the twitch.
Post race
Warm down:

none

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Ran 5 mile race the day before and suspect this may have had an impact. HR was high for the paces I was at so a little concerned I may be at over training point leading up to ultra marathon next week.

Event comments:

TMS is nice venue, fast competition as this was the SMW region championship, typical no frills Ironhead event. Would have been nice if packet pickup times hadn't changed from original notification. Would have been nice to have the waves announced rather then say they're posted over there.

Nice race, John!  I know what you mean about not biking much lately.  Still looks pretty fast to me though.  Maybe they should open up a starbucks in the transition area so those of us who like to take our time can really enjoy it .
