Very nervous. Lucky to have Kelly and Claudia to help calm my nerves as was my first Olympic distance triathlon.

Comments:

First time ever wearing a wetsuit. What a difference!!!! I did think the neck was a little too tight and had some trouble breathing at times, but it might have been nerves. Will get used to it.

What would you do differently?:

Practice taking the wetsuit on and off a few times before another open water swim.

Transition 1

04m 19s

Comments:

Seemed a little slow.

What would you do differently?:

Get better with taking the wetsuit off.

My speedometer on the bike said 18 and a half, but I'd rather believe the posted results. Definitely my best bike ever, helped of course by the flat roads and great course.

Transition 2

02m 47s

Comments:

Seemed okay. Put socks on here. Didn't wear socks for the bike.

Run

59m 45s
6.2 miles

Comments:

Felt a little nauseous at times, but worked through it.

What would you do differently?:

Don't know.

Post race

Warm down:

It was great to be with the group after the race. Enjoyed some lunch and then a LONG ride home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I'm proud of myself. Hoping to get better in the future.
