Comments: Took off in the pool with ease. By the first 100 meters I was passing the person in front of me. It took about 25 meters to finally make the pass. After that I started to fatigue. I begin breathing one sided on every stroke. Not something I normally do. The last 50 meters I think I passed another 3. What would you do differently?: Paid stricter attention to my form. Transition 1
Comments: Once outside the cold hit OMG!! But that lasted all of about 10 seconds. Once at the bike I got dressed quickly and headed out. Mounting the bike was disastorous. My legs just would not respond. The first attempt my foot slipped off. Second attempt I got on, but my foot slipped again. That was followed up with me running into the fence. Lovely. I finally got on and headed out. The shoes continued to give me trouble. Oh and did I mention I could not get my shirt all the way on, so I just left it until I was out on the bike course What would you do differently?: Work on the running mount WITH wet feet. Bike
Comments: Once I got started and finally got my shirt adjusted the bike went well. I felt like I was going great. I was +20mph almost the whole time. I was really suprised that both my GPS and my bike showed an average of over 20mph, but the race says I did 19.5. My stuff showed the distance at well over 12 miles.... What would you do differently?: Not much I really could have done differently - except train harder. Transition 2
Comments: I thought my T2 went well. No mistakes and everything went on as well as could be expected. See, by this time I could not feel my toes. They were frozen numb. Run
Comments: My first time doing a brick this year. It took me nearly a mile and a half before I started getting feelings back in my toes. The way out was rough on me having not done a brick yet. But on the way back I started warming and loosening up . What would you do differently?: Not wait until race day to do a brick Post race
