Event warmup:

Spent way too much time explaining the course to other competitors when I should have been swimming/getting used to the cold water. Not being able to run due to my injured foot impaired my warmup routine...I usually like to jog a little to get warm before I put my wetsuit on.
Swim
  • 20m 18s
  • 880 yards
  • 02m 19s / 100 yards
Comments:

Water was cold and felt choppy. For some reason I was very panicky this time around, and couldn't find a good rhythm. Maybe because I wasn't properly warmed up? Because of my foot injury, I'm much less fit this year than last year. Just glad I got through this one!
What would you do differently?:

Warm up better in the water, if possible. Do some more open water swims this summer to improve my efficiency.
Transition 1
  • 08m 32s
Comments:

Numb from swim...Couldn't seem to manage buckles, gloves, or anything. Luckily, wasn't too worried about time. Since I couldn't run the transition, I knew it would be long.
What would you do differently?:

Hopefully my foot will heal before next time, and I'll be able to hustle a little more!

Kept a steady pace. Need to get my bike fitted better. Feet numb, so hard to tell if left foot ached.

Still need a bike fitting.
