Swim
Comments: First swim in 50 meter pool. Very good swim. Took too long at the ends. Jumped in with goggles on forhead and nose plug in hand and proceeded to sink, didn"t know it was so deep. Had to hurry to surface, get goggles on, and get nose plug on before it was time for me to start. -My goal was 12 minutes so did well here. What would you do differently?: Less time at ends. Transition 1
Comments: These weren't timed. Good transition. These are getting better. Put on riding shirt, socks and shoes. Yankz laces helped greatly. Bike
Comments: This time includes both transitions. Computer said average 20.1 mph. Very happy with that. Spun the whole time and pressed pretty good. Still don't have bike shoes, just riding with running shoes on look clipless pedals. Also, tighted helmet strap too much. Took a couple bites of powerbar in transition and had hard time swallowing with strap on. What would you do differently?: Get bike shoes. Transition 2
Comments: Very quick transition. Didn't have to change shoes. Put running shirt with bib number on over bike shirt. What would you do differently?: Nada Run
Comments: Felt pretty good. Wanted to run at least 10 minute miles and surpassed that by a good deal. Post race
Warm down: Walk and wait for friends at finish line. Eat the good food offered in transition area. What limited your ability to perform faster: Experience, this is my first year(really like 4 months) of training/doing tri's. This was my 3rd tri. Event comments: Good race. Incredible facilities. Very organized. Fun course. Really enjoyed this race and will come back next year. Would like to have transition times split out. Last updated: 2006-07-31 12:00 AM
