Swim
Comments: swam far right current push to middle, swam much further than required, felt good after other than distance mind games What would you do differently?: find turnaround bouy sooner, understand bouy colors and significance of - swim faster? Transition 1
Comments: Change from swim to bike 100% - Nunn and Water to hydrate - muddy transition watch cleats What would you do differently?: Maybe tri suit - Bike
Comments: Course rolling to me hilly, some burn in legs in second half ave start - 16.5 to 14.5 hot during ride - foot hurt during ride only, never had that before - gear issues with shifting, lost 1 through 10 for a while, stayed in low gear once I got it back - Someone ran into back tire, did not effect me only stop and help time - took break at 1/2 stop - not a lot of stops for water - extra carrier? What would you do differently?: Beter way for Nunn - would not fit in bottle - Shoes hurt - learn how to downhill and corner - assure gears are good, better cadence? underarm chaffing Transition 2
Comments: Volunteers Took bike at stop point - took time to rehydrate - total change of clothes What would you do differently?: bit faster? relax and keep moving, had a lot of stuff, better prep? Run
Comments: predominately run to each water stop - walk through stop and run to next, did more than a few stops inbetween water stops, pace good - leg cramps hams 2 times, calfs wanted to but did not sieze up - comptression socks appear to have worked - shoes excellent - 2 sponges and each stop, water, electrolytes, pretzels after a while What would you do differently?: less time at each stop, could of cost 1 hr? Salt maybe? Post race
Warm down: Na - good sleep through visualization - normal food - evacuated well What limited your ability to perform faster: take more water at start - dry Last updated: 2012-04-17 12:00 AM
