The first 100 Meters started out well, I was near the front. I then tried to pass two people in front of me, but for some reason they kept (swerving?)I wasted alot of energy doing that, and then i ended up getting smacked across the face 3 or 4 times, which threw me all off. I treaded water for a bit to catch my breath and then headed off to bouy two. I decided to go on a little adventure and swam way off course, haha.
What would you do differently?:

Be meaner? More OWS experience and practice sighting.

Nothing special here, with the exception of a fairly long run to the transition area after the swim and then with the bike to the mount line.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, really.

Im not sure if im a terrible biker or if the last two courses ive raced have been tough. This was easier then last week, but there was definitely a couple tough climbs and rollers.

Im also pretty sure I cursed really loudly when the first girl passed me, who started the swim 4 minutes after me.

  • 01m 10s
Comments:

Nothing special here, just a long run to the transition area once again.

Personally, i felt like I had a really good run. The first half mile was pretty slow, but once i got my legs back I took off.
What would you do differently?:

More Bike/run bricks.

Crappy swim and not enough training
