Pre-race routine:

Getting T2 set up, enjoying the atmosphere!

No real warm-up, just got into the water as soon as my heat was allowed. Checked goggles for leaks, fogging, etc.

1640 yards
01m 27s / 100 yards

Comments:

At one point I realized there weren't many people around me--I looked up and found I had drifted too far right so I had to angle back into the group, No real harm done.

What would you do differently?:

Stayed much further to the left with the main group

Transition 1

05m 34s

Comments:

I forgot to pin my number on the tank top I pulled on after the swim so I tucked it into my wetsuit and had to pin it on during transition. No biggie, but that took up some time.

What would you do differently?:

Pinned the darn number on!

Bike

Comments:

LOVED the bike course! I feel like I have become a pretty darn strong cyclist. I passed many, many people on the uphills, felt great and powerful!

What would you do differently?:

Pushed a little harder to hit 19+ mph average

Transition 2

03m 46s

Comments:

Decent transition, but started to leave and realized I forgot my fuel belt and had to zip back to get it.

What would you do differently?:

Not forget fuel belt!

Run

1h 01m 29s
6.21 miles
09m 54s min/mile

Comments:

Surprisingly I loved the run too! I felt great--started slow. The first part was a pretty steep uphill--I ran it while many walked. Just felt better and better throughout the whole run.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing! Pushed a little harder maybe? So proud I didn't walk a single step.

Post race

Warm down:

Hit the docks at the park and jumped back into the Snake! It felt sooooo amazing!!!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Genetics :-)

Event comments:

Can't wait to do this one again! It was an absolute BLAST!
