 Swim
Comments: My primary motivation for doing this sprint was to get into the same water that the HIM in Oct will be in. I accomplished my goal of checking out the water and set a PR for 1500m at 29m30s!! What would you do differently?: More swim training.  Transition 1
Comments: Time was better than some previous times but I could do better. What would you do differently?: Incorporate T1/2 into my training plan. Go sockless.  Bike
Comments: We had to dismount to cross both times due to the rain and the bridge being wet. What would you do differently?: Train more on the bike mount and dismount. Transition 2
Comments: One of my best times in transition, but still long....... What would you do differently?: Train on T2 and going sockless if the weather permits.  Run
Comments: Not a bad course to run on. Overall it was very enjoyable. What would you do differently?: 10m/mi..... Need to improve my run time and don't make allowances for the knees. Post race
Warm down: Stretched, drank water, ate some oranges. Drank another Gatorade. What limited your ability to perform faster: Training. Event comments: Very nice race schema. I enjoyed it and was able to gain some insight on the upcoming HIM course, or at least the initial portion of each event. This was fun. Profile Album Last updated: 2013-06-28 12:00 AM

Precipitation
Overall Rank = 354/418
Age Group = ZM
Age Group Rank = 11/19
Arrived at 2000 on 20SEP13. Found a hotel and crashed. Got about 4.5 hrs sleep due to a noisy couple next door looking for their two dogs. Arrived and picked up my packet (#739) at 0450. Staged bike and kit in the rain. I was right on the end.
Debated on whether to wear my wetsuit since the water temp was 79f.... Decided to wear it since I would be using it next month during the HIM. Ate an iced honey bun and drank some Gatorade.
After getting into the water I did some short laps between the piers.
