Comments:

I am still a dreadfully slow swimmer, but I am relaxed and confident now. I don't panic, and I enjoy myself. I fought it out with a girl at the second buoy, and it didn't scare me a bit!
What would you do differently?:

Learn to swim faster, somehow.

Comments:

This T was kind of a bust because I had forgotten to put the number on my bike, so it took me forever to dig itout of the goody bag and slap it on my bike.
What would you do differently?:

Not do what I mentioned above.

Comments:

I passed people like crazy, especially on the uphills. I felt like a mean machine! My shifting skills have really improved, and I felt like I was riding economically. My hip flexors got a bit sore halfway in.

Comments:

I moved a little slower than usual, because once again I had forgotten my race number and had to dig.
What would you do differently?:

See above, :).
