Swim
  • 13m 55s
  • 440 yards
  • 03m 10s / 100 yards
Comments:

I nearly lost my mind in the surf. I swallowed half the ocean and seriously could not find a rhythm.
What would you do differently?:

I don't have a clue.
Transition 1
  • 04m 33s
Comments:

It's a long way to the transition area. I was busy having a heart attack after that swim anyway.
What would you do differently?:

Not have a heart attack getting out of the water.

Comments:

I enjoyed the bike ride, passed more people than passed me... and I passed four people on a hill! Yay! I know- still not very fast anyway.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing- keep taking spin classes. I would have passed four people up a hill without them.
Transition 2
  • 04m 4s
Comments:

I had a surreal moment where I could not find my spot. I was lost in a sea of people- many already done. It felt like eons passed.
What would you do differently?:

study my spot a little harder.

Comments:

I thought I did better on this run than my last triathlon.
What would you do differently?:

Yeah- I've got to run faster. Working on that.
Post race
Warm down:

Water, stretch. Put my flip flops on. Sit down a second.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My bad hip is killing me in the run.

Event comments:

I'm not super star, but I totally enjoyed myself.

nice job... that swim was really rough and the wind just did not help on the bike ... the fact that you enjoyed yourself is the most important thing!
