Swim
Comments: Swam 4th in the lane, everyone else was faster than me. They messed up my swim time and gave me the time of the #1 guy in my lane. He got my time. I know this is wrong because they time they have for my would have me exiting the pool before everyone else in my lane. I wish. They have the overall times right, just splits are off and adjusted in the transition times, I think. Whatever. What would you do differently?: Nothing, really. I swam the best time I could. I need to get faster. Transition 1
Comments: Again, wrong time on split sheet. NO WAY was I in transition for almost 2 minutes. Going by my own watch, it was around a minute. What would you do differently?: Nothing Bike
Comments: Well, at least the timers got this right. The ride was great! Very scenic and the day was gorgeous. I could have done without the crop duster plane zooming about 30 feet over my head, however. Transition 2
Comments: Again...wrong! Oh well, at least I looked at my watch on the way out of transition. I was super fast on both my transitions so it was disappointing to see almost 2 minutes for both when it just isn't possible. I am sure of both the bike and run times, so :44 is my adjusted T time. Run
Comments: My best 5k time ever. Timers put me at 21:55 (I wish) but I left transition at exactly 48:37 and finished the race at 1:11:41. 23 minutes, 4 seconds. A great time for me. Got passed by two people, passed a bunch. Felt great. Loved having my kids showing up at different points on the course to cheer for me. Post race
Warm down: Walked around and hung out with my family. What limited your ability to perform faster: I exceeded all my expectations so I can't think of anything. Last year in this race I got 1:23:xx so I made a big improvement. Event comments: Very enjoyable race. Last updated: 2009-05-14 12:00 AM

Got up at 5 am, ate a bowl of cereal and some yogurt. Got the family up. Drove the 50 minutes to Lebanon. Set up transition, got marked, talked to some people we know, ate a bagel.
I was in heat 5 so I had quite a long wait. Had to visit the bathroom about 5 times. No warm up because of a bathroom visit. There was a line.
