Comments:

this was not my best swim. I felt panicky when the other ladies were so aggresive. I took in alot of water and had to really remind myself it was not ok to quit. Got into a better rythym after the first bouy
What would you do differently?:

Not sure. I guess I could have started further outside instead of trying to draft off the faster girls
Transition 1
  • 01m 24s
Comments:

this was a comedy of errors. did really stupid things here like I forgot to buckle my helmet so when I stopped to so it my bike fell over, thus losing all my liquid from my aero bottle. then my shoe fell off trying to get on the bike and I had to turn around to get it.
What would you do differently?:

think a little more clearly before I start doing things!

Dissapointed again with my bike time. I really felt good so I'm suprised at my time
What would you do differently?:

Not sure

Comments:

other than a long jog on gravely pavement in bare feet, this wasn't so bad, I thought
Run

  • 6.2 miles
  • 11m 38s  min/mile
Comments:

sore knee out of the gate. It gave out at about mile 2. I probably could have done better to overcome it but I psyched myself out so much that I think I gave up right then in my mind. I ran on and off but every time it started to hurt, I would stop. Very dissapointed.
What would you do differently?:

I stopped running in POSE during Lake Zurich and I never returned. I probably started the old injury when I went back to my wicked ways of over banging my foot down too hard
Post race
Warm down:

cried, iced the knee, pouted, cried some more. Drove and got even more sore

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Genes? Other than the knee thing, I don't know what I'm doing wrong that everybody else is so damn much faster.

Event comments:

I will do this agaibn for sure. Next year I will be stronger. The end
