 Swim
Comments: I ended up in the middle of the pack and had a hard time to move to the side so I was kicked a lot. What would you do differently?: Make sure I am in the back and on the side  Transition 1
Comments: As per usual, I took my sweet time. In my case, a minute here and a minute there does not really make a difference.  Bike
Comments: No one told me that there were going to be mountains (actually hills but it seemed like mountains to me) on this course. Wind was also strong at times. Could not wait to get off the bike!!! Course was pretty at times since it took us through a rural part of Orlando through orange groves. What would you do differently?: Train for hills. Transition 2
Comments: See T1 comments. As I was running out of T2 realized I had forgotten to put sun tan lotion on so went back and did so.  Run
Comments: Hot, Hot, Hot!!!! Very dissapointed with my run although I was expecting a slow one since I really had not had a chance to train due to my calf injury. I finished without stopping, for whatever it is worth. Stopped at all stations to drink/or eat. Took 3 salt tablets. Stopped for 5 mintues to help a guy who had collapsed. What would you do differently?: Train more Post race
Warm down: Stretching, ate some pizza What limited your ability to perform faster: Lack of training on the run Last updated: 2006-11-26 12:00 AM

Not much...woke up at 4:00 a.m. had some cereal with soy milk and a banana and took off to pick up Richard at his sister's apartment. He was 20 minutes late so I got really nervous about arriving late to the transition area. Good thing that we had had to check in our bikes the day before. Saw Bill and a couple of other HH.
Some stretching
