  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: My strategy was to survive the swim, go like a demon on the bike and then hold on for the run. What did I do? I bettered my swim time by a minute. I was in the top twenty on the bike course I ran my fastest ever 5k. I blew the strategy out of the water! What did I learn? I can do this speed stuff too. And I don't need all those gels and drinks, at least at this distance. Thanks to Starcorp for his tutelage and his encouragement! He was in Vancouver doing his first Marathon! Last year I finished in 1:40:51. I was 86/101 (20th/20AG) 17:56 swim, 49:52 bike, 33:04 run. Complete Race Results are here: http://www.resultscanada.com/results2008/2008_Ice_Breaker_Triathlon...
