300 yards
02m 11s / 100 yards

Comments:

Good Swim.....for my first time in a competition. Wasn't used to the waves/chop created by others

What would you do differently?:

Train a little more on the swim. Can't complain

Transition 1

02m 53s

Comments:

Since this was my first time....I took it easy. I probably could have cut out half of that time....but I was chatting with my "neighbor", found my wife and daughter (gave them both kisses), etc.

What would you do differently?:

Just hurry more.....

Bike

58m 36s
14 miles
14.33 mile/hr

Comments:

OMG! That was the worst I'd done....even in training. The wind was out of hand. That hurt a lot. In training and bricks....averaging 18-19 mph and 3:30 miles.....

What would you do differently?:

Invent a shield that will block out the wind.

Transition 2

01m 24s

Comments:

Kind of fun trying NOT to fall. That whole "bike leg" thing was for real

What would you do differently?:

Just speed it up a little....again....waved to my wife, talked to some spectators, etc.

Run

36m 23s
3.2 miles
11m 22s min/mile

Comments:

Again...wind was a factor. I was more worn out from the bike that I normally am.

What would you do differently?:

Train more...the more tri's I do, the better my times will be

Post race

Warm down:

Stretch, talked, talked, stretched......what you're supposed to do after a race.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

WIND!

Event comments:

The put on a good time....
