Swim
Comments: Started out too fast and wasn't used to the wetsuit. Could not breath at all. Had to keep stopping and trying to pull the neck down. Ended up unzipping the back a little and that gave me a little extra breathing room and then I got my timing and started doing great. Caught up with a bunch of the swimmers that had left me behind earlier What would you do differently?: make sure I was used to my wetsuit and not wear it if I was not feeling comfortable with it. Transition 1
Comments: Not a great transition. Had trouble getting the wetsuit off the ankles. My helmet straps got tangled and I had to redo them several times. Once I got up and running to the exit, I did a good job of getting out of transition and getting on the bike and up to speed. What would you do differently?: Check my straps before the race. Bike
Comments: I was happy with the ride. Don't think I could have done a lot better....maybe gotten a little more speed when I had a tailwind or downhill and pulled my upper speeds a little longer. But overall a good ride What would you do differently?: More water. I was definately underhydrated going into the run Transition 2
Comments: Decent transition. could have gotten into the shoes a little faster, but not too bad. Run
Comments: I SUCK! I hadn't been able to run this month because of an ankle injury so I had to choose in the last week whether to train and aggravate the ankle, but be more ready to run or to let the ankle heal and not have any run training going in. Kind of the damned if you do and damned if you don't thing. I let it rest and suffered mightily on the run. 9 minutes slower than last year's run. What would you do differently?: Run faster.....
