Swim
Comments: Not too bad, really was looking to get it under 6 What would you do differently?: WARMED UP!!!!!! Transition 1
Comments: All transition time was in the bike portion What would you do differently?: WARMED UP!!!! Bike
Comments: The cold water got me, going up the 1st climb, my glutius maximus tightened up on me like NEVER before!!!! I almost had to stop pedaling! I panicked! When I got to the top of the hill, I stopped and tried to stretch them out, wasn't gonna happen. I KNOW I have to warmup before hand. For some dumb reason, I didn't and it cost me. I stopped 7 times during the bike leg to stretch. I just kept it aerobic and turned it into a training day. What would you do differently?: Warmed up Transition 2
Run
What would you do differently?: WARMED UP!!!! Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: NOT WARMING UP!!!! This was a live and learn race. I have known for a long time that I have got to warmup before races, especially when it's cooler out. The cold water gets me. I had to go to plan Z. I just kept it as aerobic as I could and made it a training day. It wasn't easy but I tried to stay positive and make the best of the cards I was dealt, although i dealt them to myself by not warming up.It was strange to place 1st and have had the 2nd worst race to date. BUT, I finished, pushed through and never even thought of letting the Q word enter into the equation. It is what it is. Last updated: 2013-04-15 12:00 AM
