Swim
Comments: I felt like the first lap went well but the second lap I think I lost my form and went slower. I also struggled a bit with spotting and did not swim too straight. Still need a lot of work with my swimming. What would you do differently?: Just need to practice more. Transition 1
Comments: t1 mat did not work so this is an estimate. I also accidently hit the stop button instead of lap on my garmin so that is not accurate either. T1 had a longer run up a hill so transitions were slow. Bike
Comments: Thought I would have biked a bit closer to 22mph. Felt kind of dizzy and sick to my stomch coming out of the swim, this may have had something to do with it. What would you do differently?: On the first half of the ride there was a tail wind and I think I could have pushed a little more. Transition 2
Comments: Felt like my transition was really good. What would you do differently?: Nothing. Run
Comments: Thought I ran pretty well through the first 5 miles. Knew the course well and used that to my adv. I knew the first half of the course was going to be uphill and the second half mostly downhill so I crushed the hills pretty well on the first half and cruised mostly downhill on the second half. What would you do differently?: Last 1k or so I was even with a guy I had caught up to. I knew he was staying on my back shoulder and waiting to sprint at the end. In the end he went and I let him go. Back in my HS and college wrestling days, I would have pushed. I need to get my mental toughness back. Post race
