Swim
Comments: This felt like a horrible swim. I couldn't get into a rythem and there seemed to be people all around me. I felt really tired very quickly. The time seems a lot faster than the performance felt. What would you do differently?: Not much, I simply felt like I had a bad swim. Transition 1
Comments: I was slow getting my wetsuit off. What would you do differently?: I'm not sure, this is a re-occuring problem. Bike
Comments: For some reason my HR spiked on Old Stage and it felt like my chest was going to come apart. My legs still had power, but my HR was my limiter. This is not very common for me on the bike and it really isn't normal for Old Stage. I'm not sure what happened. I also some time on the descent given my weight and ability to work well with gravity, but so did everyone else. What would you do differently?: Train more for climbing! Transition 2
Comments: I chose to run this one with socks so it slowed my T2 a bit, but it made the run much more comfortable. I also took a few seconds to down a little gatorade before the run. It seemed to work as I didn't feel dehydrated for the run. What would you do differently?: Not much, I didn't force the effort too much. Run
Comments: This run hurt, but it was fast for my ability. I would like to be faster but I have to be patient. What would you do differently?: Run more! Post race
Warm down: Watched for Jen to finish and then had a couple of beers with the BT crew. What limited your ability to perform faster: Overall training time. I've only been doing this tri stuff for a little over a year so I can't complain too much. Event comments: They put on a good race! Last updated: 2006-05-05 12:00 AM

The alarm went off at 3:00am and I had a couple of cups of coffee, ate breakfast, loaded the car annd headed to Boulder by 4:00. We got there at 5:00 and felt like we were late. There were already a bunch of people there.
Set up my transition and took a short jog. I felt rushed and didn't feel like I had enough time to properly warm up.
