Comments: 2:04 per 100 is ok for me but I think I was more in the 1:55 camp unless this course was really longer than last years. What would you do differently?: nothing... well besides train harder  Transition 1
Comments: well I got the idea from coach to strip down on the beach before the 200 yd run to T1. I took off the top and when I stopped on the beach and bent over I got vertigo... tried again, dizzzy.... again... dizzy.... so I sat on my butt on the beach and took it off. ... still was a good idea since I was 3/31 in my AG and 28/343 OA in T1 What would you do differently?: sit down quicker  Bike
Comments: VERY Happy with the bike... came out of water BOP and passed a lot of people on the bike as if they were standing still. 38 OA on the bike and 6 in my AG.Played cat and mouse with the 3rd OA female on the hills... she'd pass me up I'd pass her down.... she caught me at mile 1 on the run What would you do differently?: nothing Transition 2
Comments: forgot to put my wriststrap on before race so I had to carry my 310 for the run... but again... fast in T2 as in T1... 18 OA and 4th in AG What would you do differently?: wrist strap for 310  Run
Comments: alsmot puked coming out of T2 and my kit was super tight, stuck to me suction tight... not comfortable. Along with my race belt falling down and having to carry my garmin it was a PITA for sure but kept composure. at 2.5 miles I saw a few of my fellow AGers pass me but I had nothing left to keep up with them. I tried but I knew I was at a good pace. Maybe could have dug deeper but didn't want to risk pulling something or twisting something 6 weeks out of Placid... What would you do differently?: not wear my kit... probably could have bettered my run by 1-2 min but that's it. Post race
Warm down: walked, met up with the team... coach took first OA, other team mate 2nd OA. Team AGers... 1st FEmale 40-44, 1st female 35-39, 4th male 40-44.. good day for NWT What limited your ability to perform faster: all in all good race except for team kit... Plus I beat my time from last year by 7 min and 1 sec..... good day Last updated: 2012-06-11 12:00 AM

woke at 545... banana, bagel, small gatorade mixed w water, water. and a coffee of course
was hectic here with the rain and had a friend with me for his first triathlon... won't do that again. was good to have him there but took away from my pregame rituals. Was able to get in 20-30 min on the bike and 10 min run, but no swim. Realized I forgot my aero bottle so I took off my water bottle cage since it doesn't fir reglar bottles.. but forgot to tape a tube to my bik. so if I flatted I was SOL.
