Comments: First, the excuses: This wasn't an 'A' race for me and I didn't taper at all, I was fighting off a cold I picked up from the kids on Friday, and I got MAYBE 4 hours of sleep the night before the race. OK, now the reality. I've got to improve my bike training in the off-season and (don't tell my wife) but I really need to get a tri-bike to be able to go aero. The fact is, I can no longer think that biking is my strength when I'm hemorrhaging time on this leg. My swim is OK, considering how little I train for it (comparatively). And I have to push myself harder on the run, because I know I'm faster than how I am performing lately. I just have to trust that I have enough juice in the legs to go out at a faster pace, instead of being so conservative and saving too much for the final stretch.

Comments: Good race, cool venue, challenging course relative to some of the pancakes out there. Will be back again. I didnt hit my goal to lop off 15 minutes, but got about 12 of em and have some easy stuff to improve on. I was shocked to have gotten hardware with that donkey paced swim, but work on the run and bike can cover up some of that it seems. Still lots of work to go...

Comments: This was a really nice race. The venue is really nice, the lake isnt a bad swim once you get beyond the weeds, the bike is a very challenging course and the run is a nice too. I would recommend this race. It reminds me of the BIGFOOT race at Lake Geneva. I think I will put this on the calendar for next year.
