Horrible swim, suit was put on poorly plus I think I may need to size up. The shoulders felt like I was fighting the suit the whole time.

put my suit on properly and/or get a new suit.....probably going sleeveless for my next one. Or I could have brought my shorty suit and used that.

Horrible transition too. I was sucking wind from the swim and needed to collect myself.

have a better swim and not stress over it.

Took about a mile to get my rythm going, but then I just did my thing and had an ok ride. I rocked the technical downhill and even paced myself for a difficult run. I did start to get dehydrated near the end and took in all the GU Brew I had.

hydrate better the day before.

another slow transition, was almost out but had to turn around and grab my number belt.

not forget to put on my race belt.

Good run even though I had to resort to walking on Tobbogan Hill. I came so close, 5 seconds, from catching he guy in front of me. I just ran out of course. A better swim, T1, or T2 would have made the difference. Oh well, next time.

Nothing, good run for me after a challenging course and my fist Xterra of the year.

drink liquid, eat food, and stand in the water to relax. Oh yes, and the pushup contest before awards.


1st tri of the season so it went OK.


Another awesome Xterra event. I love these things.
