Swim
Comments: Horrible swim, first off everyone said the course was long. Was thinking 25-27 min even without the wetsuit but almost 30? First off I wrestled with two dudes for the first 500 yards. No matter what I did they were there. Went off to right they followed, picked up pace they were there. I was cussing under the water at them. Coming back around the bouys straight into the sun. I couldn't see a thing ( I also need new goggles) Went hard last 200 yards into the shore What would you do differently?: everything, move up further, go harder at the beginning, smack those dudes on the heads Transition 1
Comments: was doing ok until a guy almost ran into me forcing me off the pavement into the dirt What would you do differently?: practice running with the bike and jumping on it Bike
Comments: ok bike, HR was high, hills were a bit%@. Not good on hills but did break the speed limit on a 35mph road coming down a hill What would you do differently?: work on hills and cornerinig Transition 2
Comments: shoes too tight to get right on, had to sit down and jam them on What would you do differently?: work on shoes to make them perfect for slipping right on Run
Comments: good run although starting out seemed tough to get legs under me. Passed a lot of people on run What would you do differently?: do more bricks to acclimate legs to going right off bike Post race
Warm down: nothing, saw Evan and his Grandpa and talked with them What limited your ability to perform faster: swim and hills Last updated: 2007-05-21 12:00 AM

Couple of Eggos and dropped Evan off at the inlaws and headed to race site. First tri so had no clue what to do as far as set up and body marking. Just followed the pack, got bike racked and marked, checked out the water and rode for a little bit to make sure everything was up to snuff on bike.
Brief bike and short run.
