Swim
Comments: I didn't think my swim was that outstanding, but I was fourth out of the water overall. My navigation could have been a little better and rounding the bouy was bad, but my stroke felt comfortable. The time on my watch was different than the offical time because there was about a 200yrd run in the sand to the transition, so I counted that in T1 instead of with my swim time. What would you do differently?: ???? Transition 1
Comments: Like stated above, I counted the sand run in with my T1. I am soooo bad at transitions, one of these days I will actually practice. What would you do differently?: Practice Bike
Comments: Every time I got up to speed in Aero I had to turn so I never got a good cadence going. Transition 2
Comments: I am usally better in T2, but I couldn't get the bike racked and then everthing else fell apart. Run
Comments: WOW!!!! That was HORRIBLE!!!! The run was all in the sun and I never could get cooled down. I ran the first loop well and then the wheels fell off and I found my self walking more than running on the second loop. I don't know what happened, but I just couldn't keep it going for anything. I need to get some more runs in! What would you do differently?: ?????Run more???? Post race
Warm down: Swim/stand in Lake Michigan for about 15min What limited your ability to perform faster: My running!! If I could have run 6 min faster (thats only 9min pace) I would have won my age group (I lost by 3sec) and been in the top 10 in the race. Last updated: 2006-07-12 12:00 AM

woke up had some coffee and went to the race. There was no close parking so I carried all my crap about half a mile to the transition area.
Walk to transition and swam a little. (ripped my wet suit putting it on)
