Run
Comments: The pack at the start line went out really quick, and i got caught up in the pace. My first mile was around 10:30 and the second one i slowed down a little. I really felt good on the run and wanted to save some for the bike so i did not push too much. No walking. What would you do differently?: I would have drank more water. Transition 1
Comments: I have to learn how ot run in my feet and keep the shoes on the bike. What would you do differently?: Different technique for transition. Bike
Comments: I felt really good on the bike and i knew i would have to recover and get ready for the run while on the bike. I maybe could have pushed a little harder but i would have been spent for the run. What would you do differently?: I would have drank ore water. I did not drink that much as it was really cool. Transition 2
Comments: I need transition work. Most of my time at this point can be shaved byt training alone, but no reason now to slow my transitions. I may have been able to shave 2:00 off of my total time with really tight transitions What would you do differently?: Practice my transitions Run
Comments: When i left T2, i felt like my left thigh was going to lock up, but after around.75 it felt ok. The legs were very tired and i pushed right to my limit, and i felt i paced myself well. I took some accelerade at the 1 mile mark to see if the electrolytes would help the spreness, but probably not enough time to have an effect. Those are the fastest run paces i have ever run and i felt really good (but tired) when i finished. My legs had little or nothing left when i finished What would you do differently?: Train more Post race
Warm down: I drank a lot of water, and did some squats and a little stretching after i caught my wind back. What limited your ability to perform faster: 1. 73 extra pounds of fat on my body 2. I have only been running since July so training time 3. Transitions Event comments: Grea race and a great time. Last updated: 2007-02-11 12:00 AM

I ate susho last night as my pre-race meal and that is my official pre-race meal. Otherwise Claudie and I woke up at 4:45 and drove up to coconut creek from miami and picked up our packets and prepared our transition. I felt naked without prepping for the swim i couldn't shake the feeling i was for getting somethin, but i hadn't.
I drank a lot of water and stretched on the grass.
