 Swim
Comments: Probably my best attempt at drafting and navigation was MUCH improved over previous events. I think the swim was longer than 400 yards. What would you do differently?: I only swam at about RPE7... could have picked it up a notch in hindsight.  Transition 1
Comments: Much better than last year... cut it in half as I actually ran from the water to T1 What would you do differently?: Practice, Practice, Practice  Bike
Comments: Threw the chain at the turn around... that is twice now and both times on this particular course... cost me at least a minute! But this was my best bike effort to date.. 254 watts avg! What would you do differently?: Climbs appeared a bit slower than when I have done this course on my road bike... need to improve climbing skills on tri bike... been riding the AFB roads which are flat... need more hill training! Transition 2
Comments: Took feet out of shoes too early... rode last bit including a climb with feet on top of shoes. Thought seat was hooked on rack and let go... BOOM... it landed on my shin leaving a nice goose egg... must not have gotten my shoes on right... 3 blisters during short run! T2 was fast but sloppy... What would you do differently?: Attention to detail when racking, check out course BEFORE I do it and get my shoes on better!!  Run
Comments: Good run, negative split each mile What would you do differently?: Run more! Not doing an early season half marathon has my running behind where I was at this time last year! Post race
Warm down: Banana... caught up with some friends that I only see at races!! What limited your ability to perform faster: Not much today... pretty solid effort all around! Happy with the result but there is always room to improve! Event comments: Team Magic puts on a great event! 9/31 AG 110/467 OA 91/315 Male Last updated: 2012-01-31 12:00 AM

Up early for the hour+ drive... bagel with almond butter and water for the ride up... but today I had my two oldest daughters with me... AWESOME!
Swam a couple hundred yards to get the open water anxiety out of the way!
