Swim
Comments: Not sure on the time- in the rush I forgot to start my watch. It was really busy- spent almost the whole time focusing on not running into people, and trying to get away from the people running into me. Had to manuver around a few people that were floudering around. What would you do differently?: Maybe try to get more on the outside? Transition 1
Comments: Have no idea how long this was either...but it seemed to go pretty smoothly. Not as much sand to contend with as in training. Bike
Comments: Yay for only one hill! Had a hard time getting up my speed for the first half. Probably could have pushed harder, but wanted to save some energy for the run. Got up a little speed on the last leg- that was more fun. The whole thing went by pretty fast. What would you do differently?: Try to go faster! :-D And train more (maybe make it to a spinning class). Transition 2
Comments: Don't really know the time on this either. Had a big swig of water. Run
Comments: Went well! I think I walked a little less than normal- my pace was a little faster than in training. I stopped to stretch my calves near the beginning. It got a little warm at the end, but I was able to run the last leg. What would you do differently?: I wouldn't have minded another water station near the end. Post race
Warm down: Streched a little while listening to raffle...didn't win anything :(. But didn't feel as tired as I expected to...which maybe means I could have pushed a little harder. Ah, well- I'm just glad I made it through! Event comments: Kind of hard to rate the race, since it was my first. Overall I was disappointed with the swim, but beside that it was great!

Was pretty nervous- didn't get much sleep.
Jogged around a swam a little, but didn't have a whole lot of time to warmup and stretch.
