Swim
Comments: I felt good this time around but I feel I could have swam alot faster. I still had a ton of energy left after exiting the water. What would you do differently?: Put out more Transition 1
Comments: This transition was terrible and the bike mount was congested. There was no way to actually step onto the bike while rolling and mount. Had to wait for people in front of me. What would you do differently?: Next time and lesson learned, push myself through people who wanna chit chat at the transition area. Bike
Comments: I pushed really hard during the bike and almost puked at one point. What would you do differently?: Push even harder Transition 2
Comments: I had to pee really bad so hit up the porta john on the way out. I am really considering retiring the tri suit due to the logistics of getting it off to pee Run
Comments: Pushed myself pretty hard on the run too. What would you do differently?: Train with more explosive type of drills. I have plateaued at around 28 minutes for my last three races. Post race
Warm down: Talking to all the pretty ladies ;) What limited your ability to perform faster: I could not sleep the night before. Nerves and the fact that I forgot my sleeping bag didnt help too much. Last updated: 2012-08-29 12:00 AM

Camped out at the campground next to the lake. Woke up at about 4 am, ate an energy bar, drank some of that Camelbak Elixir, stretched my arms a bit and walked over to the race venue.
Ran up and down the beach a few times to warm up a bit and then did a quick 100m swim to get used to the water.
