 Swim
Comments: I'm happy with this result. My swimming is definitely improving. Making it a point to point swim with a time trial start was an improvement for this race. What would you do differently?: Figure out a way to get my HR down. It was too high and I came out of the water more tired than I would like to be for a sprint.  Transition 1
Comments: One of these days I'll learn a flying start. 31/93 in AG What would you do differently?: Go faster.  Bike
Comments: I had a few situations where I found it difficult to pass people. I stuck to my game plan to charge up the one hill. I definitely burned a match doing that on both laps but it was worth it. Transition 2
Comments: If I could run faster through transition this time would have been better. 31/93 in AG  Run
Comments: I haven't been able to run a lot lately because of shin splints. As such, I'm just happy that I didn't completely fall apart on this run. Post race
Warm down: Hang out and wait for drcherrybomb to finish. What limited your ability to perform faster: My run was bad. Unfortunately I've been hampered by shin splints. I need to lose weight. Event comments: This is my third time doing this race. I really recommend it and will likely do it again. They used to have better finisher medals, but since switching to TriRock, the medal isn't as good as it was. Last updated: 2013-06-23 12:00 AM

Packed night before. Banana in the morning at the hotel. Drive over to park. Pump tires, walk down to transition and setup. On the way down the hill I saw a bad bike accident. Somebody was biking while everybody else was walking and the guy must have just braked w/ the front brake. Next thing I know he goes over his bike in a somersault. He did a complete flip in the air. It was disturbing to watch. He needed medical attention immediately.
None other than stretching arms out.
