Swim
Comments: tough swim for me... cramped up bad at the end, literally 10 feet from the exit. Stood waist deep in the water and my left leg locked up. All I could do was stand there and hold it. Tried to massage it out but just stood tall to stretch it out. Felt like forever. Could have been 5 minutes could have been 10. All I remember is the others coming out of the water asking if I was ok. The volunteers and spectators could just stand and watch. I just remember saying to myself,"Walk... walk... you may fall but you have to walk." What would you do differently?: nothing could be done really. 2nd race of the day Transition 1
Comments: This segment the race was reversed. was BIKE SWIM RUN format. In T1 we had to get suit on after bike. I was pretty beat up after the AM race and had about 2.5 hours to recoup for race 3. Then I had to wait in the sun for 45 min to get off on the bike since it was a TT start.. 2 bikers at a time. What would you do differently?: now that I know that others would move up in line to get off sooner I maybe would do that in the future but I wasn't up front because my seed was in the back so I stayed there. Bike
Comments: hard course, hilly... good thing I brought the 32 with me. Transition 2
Comments: took a while to get the suit on after the bike portion. wegmans plastic bags to help getting suit on... body glide was completely melted and flew all over the place when I opened the stick Run
Comments: long day and it took it's toll here on the run. Post race
