Swim
Comments: my swim continues to be my weakest leg What would you do differently?: swim much more... practice, practice, practice Transition 1
Comments: the lake was at least 1/4 of mile away from T1 on a trail up hill. I had to run barefoot up that hill and then to T1. Bike
Comments: I need to work much more on my bike. I want to be able to do 22mph+ on Oly distances. I drabk too much liquid too often to make up for what I didn't drink prior the race. I also forgot to take my 2nd GU right before the run... Transition 2
Comments: At that point I could feel I wasn't hydrate properly Run
Comments: my run continues to be my strongest leg. During this leg I suffer the consequences of poorly pre race hydrayion and missing my endurolyes. Since I tried to make up for my lack of hydration prior the race I drank too much too often while biking and that forced me to stop to water the woods! I also started cramping 1.5 miles to go Post race
Warm down: Endurox R4, pretzels, water, Light strechting What limited your ability to perform faster: Sat before the race I did a bike ride for 70 miles. I knew I was going to be tired but it wasn't an "A" race. I decided to compete the night before the race and my plan was to hammered it as much as posible during the bike. My lack of hydration affected my performance the most. Event comments: ALWAYS drink before the race, take endurolytes and follow the hydration-nutrition plan as established before the race.
