 Swim
Comments: I felt my technique went out the door after 200m as I was surrounded by others and tried not to bump too often. Lesson learned, trust yourself! What would you do differently?: Not look up so often. I looked up (sight)about every 5 strokes and would have been fine every 10-15.  Transition 1
Comments: Spent too much time in T-1 worried about the little things. Should have just trusted myself again and would have shaved at least a minute. What would you do differently?: Moved faster!!  Bike
Comments: Biked better than expected,especially for only training on my bike for 4 weeks. Would still like to train harder on hills though. What would you do differently?: More hill training and transition practice. Transition 2
Comments: Faster than expected transition. What would you do differently?: Happy with T2.  Run
Comments: Started with terrible cramps in my inner thighs which caused me to slow down my pace. After those went away, I had a side stitch on my right which transfered to my left side. I ended up running the last 2 miles with a side stitch that slowed me down. I think I drank a little too much water at the turn. What would you do differently?: Not drink so much water, work on my inner thigh muscles, and practice with more bricks! Post race
Warm down: Food! What limited your ability to perform faster: Cramps and lack of lake swimming. Event comments: Would do it again. It was my first and I really enjoyed it! Last updated: 2004-08-14 12:00 AM

| 11 | Subject: RE: High Falls- Tri the Parks Hey - great job! I was there and it was my first too. I however, came in next to last in the male novice division. I really need to spend more time on my bike - plus I ride a hybrid at this point. I'll be doing the entire series next year!!!!!!! Maybe I'll see you there! |

After body marking and chip, set up T-area then ran for 5 minutes. I did my normal stretching. I swam for a few minutes to get a feel for the water. Tried to relax at that point.
See above.
