Comments:

I traveled twice as far as anyone else since I don't seem to know how to swim in a straight line. I also just plain suck at swimming.
What would you do differently?:

Practice swimming more
Transition 1
  • 03m 5s
Comments:

Disoriented from the swim, so I took it easy. I felt like throwing up (which I haven't felt like since 7th grade football) and I searched through my backpack for the camera so I could toss it to my dad during transition since he was late. My bike was also knocked over on the ground. :(

Comments:

I had to force myself to drink bc my body wanted anything but water after that swim.
Transition 2
  • 01m 47s
Comments:

The transition area was so crowed and I got stuck behind a woman who didn't know where she was so I had to turn around and go around the other side of the rack.
Run
  • 31m 36s
  • 3.11 miles
  • 10m 10s  min/mile
Comments:

I don't know how to run up or especially down steep hills. I was running the whole time and never walked, but my time was slower than my last tri that I walked a bit in. I had too much energy at the end and could have run another 5K, but I know if I went any faster, I would have run out of energy too soon.
What would you do differently?:

Learn how to run faster

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Swim.

Event comments:

Transition area WAY WAY too crowded. Between this and texas man (my only other tri) this seemed much less organized.
