Swim
Comments: Best swim I've had. I like the new start. Had clear water for most of the race. Had no issues siting. Only had to stop once to clear goggles. Transition 1
Comments: All kinds of issues. Missed my row. Had problems with the suit, getting my run belt on (too large as I loaned to it a teammate at Ragnar Wasatch Back). What would you do differently?: Double check all equipment no matter how small. Begin to learn the shoe clipped in technique Bike
Comments: Tough hill. Without the climb average cadence would have been closer to 90. Good ride but not as good as I thought. Climb up Old Stage was tough. Did not make up as much time on the decent due to 35mph speed limit. Thought I had a consistent ride for the rest of the ride but avg MPH was down. Was looking for closer to 21 mph rather than the 18.4. What would you do differently?: Keep training. Maybe I could have come up out of the saddle. I stayed seated during the entire ride including the climb. Transition 2
Comments: Had problem racking bike. Need to tilt rear water bottles more to provide clearance. What would you do differently?: Practice feet out of shoes technique. Run
Comments: Thought I had a better pace. Was shooting for 7:30. Must have been tired from bike. Could have been a fuel issue. What would you do differently?: Set my watch to track run pace. I should have picked it up. Post race
Warm down: Walk to bring down heart rate and cool down. Temps had started to rise. What limited your ability to perform faster: Could have been pre-race fueling. Will look at new products on the market. Could stand to lose about 7 - 10 pounds to get closer to 160. Event comments: Love the new start method. Don't like the bike finish (not the normal finish which has been modified to account for road construction). The climb up Old Stage is challenging - may have taken a lot out of me - more than I thought. Last updated: 2013-01-01 12:00 AM
