![]() Swim
Comments: Not sure why my swim was so much slower than normal for this distance. I guess I just wasn't really pushing it. What would you do differently?: Push the pace more. ![]() Transition 1
Comments: I dropped my new (prescription) goggles coming in to transition, so once I realized this happened, I walked back toward the water looking for them; then, I realized I couldn't cross the timing mat, so I just sort of looked down the chute area before giving up and getting ready for the bike. As I was leaving on the bike, resigned to having lost my new goggles after one use, I saw Jenn and told her to look for them. All this is background for why my T1 time is so slow. What would you do differently?: Keep hold of my goggles until I get to my transition area. ![]() Bike
Comments: Okay ride, I guess. A bit slower than I would have liked, but I wasn't really prepared for the hills. At least, I should have been more prepared than I was. What would you do differently?: Better prepare for the hills. ![]() Transition 2
Comments: Better T2 than T1. What would you do differently?: Nothing ![]() Run
Comments: This has just been a slow year. The run felt fine, but my pace was just not what I was able to do last year. For next year, I need to do more speed work. What would you do differently?: More speed work. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Walked around and cheered Jenn and Jess across the line. Ate some food. What limited your ability to perform faster: Not sure. Event comments: This was a fun race, and it's great that it's a family event. I took the race somewhat easy to ensure I could enjoy the experience, but I was still a bit disappointed with my times. At least my overall time was under 3 hours. Last updated: 2013-02-03 12:00 AM

Woke up at hotel and ate breakfast (bagel with PB b/c I couldn't get waffles); drove to race; parked and set up my transition area. Then I just wandered around until it was time to do a swim warm up.
Did a bit of a swim; maybe 10 minutes.
