Swim was fast, maybe a bit short.

Try to stay with the leaders more. I did not runsh into the water and I think that by doing tis I missed my chance to draft off the faster guys. I was by myself for a good part of the swim.

It was tough getting through Transition being wet and now it was raining. Did not really realize how cold it was at this point.

Cover my stuff with a chance of rain, and wear more clothes.

I was doing this race as a training race and with the conditions, I was not going to get hurt. I really slowed and went easy around turns and down hills.

Eat more. It was so cold that it hurt to chew. It was also hard to get food out of my back pockets with feezing hands and a vest over my jersey.

This was slow. My feet and hands were numb so I really struggled during this transition. The rain had let up and I tried getting a dry shirt on over a wet tri-top...very difficult.

Speed laces. Have my stuff more prepared for the run.

I did not eat enough on the bike and died on the run. Had to stop at a few stations and really chow down. I walked a lot but I did not want to hurt myself.

Eat more on the bike to set up my run. Keep feet warmer so it wouldnt feel like I was running on nubs for the first few miles.

I hadnt even warmed up.


Weather, food intake.


It was tough to really judge this race bc of the conditions. Nobody really hung out after. I did have a cold one with Mark (Rollinbones) and JohnnyKay after the race which was nice.

Thank you to all of the volunteers that gave up their Saturday to watch us idiots run around in the freezing cold in our underware.
