 Swim
Comments: Excellent swim for me! I couldn't be happier. I came out of the water with plenty of energy. What would you do differently?: Little  Transition 1
Comments: I was really beat an my HR shot way up after I got out of the water. What would you do differently?: Slow down a tad upon exiting the water  Bike
Comments: Holy Crap! Where do I begin? I started out too fast, with too high a HR. I didn't drink enough. But overall I was not in adequate cycling condition. What would you do differently?: Ride more. Drink more Transition 2
Comments: Woo Hoo! Top ten T2 What would you do differently?: Not much  Run
Comments: I had no gas from the beginning. I had to walk three times and still couldn't get my HR to decrease. What would you do differently?: Ride my bike more. Drink more on the bike. Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Without a doubt, the largest impediment to my performance was my lack of cycling fitness. Second would be my water intake. I consumed 64 ox of water in the 8 hours that proceeded the finish of the race but did not pee until 8 hours post race finish; and that was a pathetic, bright yellow effort. I am actually a little frightened now that I look back. Event comments: Excellent, well run race. I enjoy this one a lot. Last updated: 2006-04-19 12:00 AM

Pro 4675 Wisconsin near the Twin Cities metro | Subject: RE: Buffalo Triathlon Nice race! I did the Buffalo Olympic yesterday also...those headwinds weren't fun. I thought the turnaround at the cemetery was appropriate. Maybe we'll see you at the next MN race. Jim Kelley |

I thought the turnaround at the cemetery was appropriate. Maybe we'll see you at the next MN race. Jim Kelley I got passed by a fellow in the cemetary and made a comment to that effect. I am guessing, judging from your time, that you were quite a bit farther ahead when I had that brief chat. |

Regular 114 Central Minnesota | Subject: RE: Buffalo Triathlon It was interesting to read your report and your take on how the bike affected your run. I know that you have a much better run in you. Your swim and transitions were excellent! Was this your first Oly? |

I know that you have a much better run in you. Your swim and transitions were excellent! Was this your first Oly? I should not have exceeded 7:30 miles. This tells me that bike fitness and nutrition / hydration were factors. I took 20 oz of water and 20 oz of drink mix on the bike. I finished with half of each. I have no excuse for not finishing each of those bottles. This is my first OLY and was a great learning experience. A 2.5 hour race is quite a different animal than a 1 hour race. |
