Good swim. Seems like I should have been sub 7 minutes. . but oh well.

Nothing. I wish they started the waves by swim time and not semi-age group.

I seem to be the slowest one in the world in transition. I must just move slow or something.

Try to run faster from the water to the transition area

Had a good bike. Should have pushed just a little harder. All in all, I was happy.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe a bike warmup? something to get the legs going.
Transition 2

Comments:

I have to wear orthotics and since I don't put socks on before the bike, I have to here, which slows me down. I have to do it though. Plus I am just slow in transition.

Comments:

Well, if you can't tell this is my weak point. Actually I am very excited to have a sub 8 minute mile. I don't think I have ever done that before anywhere.
What would you do differently?:

Just train more on the run. .. I let this drop off a lot since Ironman.
Post race
Warm down:

Just got some water/gatorade and talked with friends.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Well, I hate to admit it, but the 10 extra pounds I put on since Ironman CDA had a lot to do with that. Next year. . . :)
