Swim
Comments: I felt great on this swim. I did not feel like I overexerted or anything. In all actuallity, I just settled in right away, let everybody who was ahead of me do their thing, and I either passed them or held my own. What would you do differently?: Not a thing Transition 1
Comments: That run in the sand to the transition sucked. That is frickin awful. It was liek a quarter mile to T1! It added like 90 seconds to my T1 time. Totally blew. What would you do differently?: Take a bus. Bike
Comments: Went at a pretty good clip here. I was unfamiliar with the course, but got through it fairly decently. I wasn't passed too much, and passed a couple on the first lap too. What would you do differently?: Maybe gone about 1 MPH faster. I had it in me. Transition 2
Comments: Better transition than at Warsaw. In, out and on the run.... Run
Comments: It sucked really bad. My cardio was completely screwed up, due to two weeks of inconsistent training and working so damn much. I was over a minute off my race pace. Should have been at least 3 minutes faster. What would you do differently?: I need to train more, and get back into running a bit more. The bike is an important goal for me, but I nee dthe run to finish better. It all comes down to the run. Post race
Warm down: Walked around, drank gatorade, etc. It statred to rain so I packed up and left. What limited your ability to perform faster: My inconsistency in training the last two weeks. It has been so difficult to train consistently since I got bakc fro The White Lake Half IM. Event comments: The guy who announced this, Tom Ziebart, was a total dick.
