 Swim
Comments: my sighting was much better than at my recent HIM. This was pretty easy - I was on a casual swim but it felt fine What would you do differently?: more shots of bourbon. new PR (although it was only 1000m)  Transition 1
Comments: nothing exciting here  Bike
Comments: what can I say other than I dont like the bike, I hadnt been on the bike for any length of time post HIM, I dont like the bike, I dont like the bike. Did I mention how much biking sucks? What would you do differently?: run, it is almost faster Transition 2
Comments: nothing excciting here  Run
Comments: I felt like I was out for a jog, smiling and high fiving people. I didnt have any goals. I never tried to push the pace, I just settled into a comfotable cadence. This was fun and dare I say easy. I didnt get anything from any aid station, never got passed and passed a few people. What would you do differently?: I guess I should have run a little harder but I can live with myself. I did crush my previous best and set a PR on pace/mile eventhough the race was longer. Post race
Warm down: change clothes, grab a pepsi, find david get bourbon for the pepsi What limited your ability to perform faster: well I didnt train for this race, didnt plan on doing the race until 48 hrs before. I was out to have fun and normally that doesnt include redlining and going hard at any point. Event comments: Nice way to coast into the off season setting PR on swim and run. Olympic Mini - the Mullet of triathlons, short on the front and long in the back. Last updated: 2010-09-24 12:00 AM

drove for 85 minutes in the predawn darkness. pottied. A first for triathlons, I did a shot of bourbon. I hadnt really planned on doing this race but peer pressure made me do it. I was in it more for the exercise than to set any records.
quick run around the parking lot, then a few strokes in the lake
