 Swim
Comments: Felt good. minimal contact. Caught swimmers from 3 waves ahead of me. Might be the first time for that What would you do differently?: Go harder? Felt faster than 1:43  Transition 1
Comments: Wetsuit got stuck on the GIANT timing chip. Velcro on shoes stuck to itself Faster T1 than the guys ahead of me on the AG leaderboard What would you do differently?: prep shoes better  Bike
Comments: Pushed it hard on the bike. Came off the aero bars on some sketchy downhills, road was a bit bumpy in spots What would you do differently?: Stay on aero bars Transition 2
Comments: Some "person" dropped their stuff on my stuff and knocked some things around. Had a bit of trouble finding my Garmin quick release wrist strap What would you do differently?: not wear Garmin? hardly looked at it on the run.  Run
Comments: Had no idea what my pace was, just ran by feel. Surprised my first mile on Garmin was 7:41. The thing beeped at me during the first mile and displayed a message but without my glasses I have no idea what it said, lol Also, I pressed lap at the end instead of stop. Sat on one guy's heels almost the whole time. Slowed at 2 water stations, walked for 10 seconds or so at one.As far as I know no one in my AG passed me. What would you do differently?: Train better Post race
Warm down: Stretch too little, eat and drink, hunt for my wife What limited your ability to perform faster: Training volume Last updated: 2013-05-24 12:00 AM

Steelman Triathlon
70F / 21C
Sunny
Overall Rank = 103/346
Age Group = M50-54
Age Group Rank = 4/21
Up at 2:52... ugh. Planned to sleep until 3:30 but kept waking up so I just stayed up. Shower, kid droppage, breakfast, load the car, left the house around 4:30. Was hoping to get into the marina parking but got redirected to lot 13. Was a bit miffed to see people park in the marina after I had already parked in 13
Jogged a bit, did some strides, active stretching. Was very warm and sweaty when I put on my wet suit with about 15 mins to my wave.
