Pre-race routine:

Big mistake - didn't. Too busy socializing with people I don't get to see very often.

pool swim, 2 people per lane.
No warm up and I was hurting by the third lap
only 5 seconds faster than last year....rather disappointed.
Transition 1
  • 01m 50s
Comments:

have to run outside to bike racks....I was rather dizzy and had to spend a bit of time waiting for that to go away.
What would you do differently?:

Get through it quicker - drop a minute here.

  • 21.75 miles

What would you do differently?:

I had an 18.3 avg for the course. I could have pushed it a bit more but I was unsure how hard to go and still be able to run....I dropped about 6 minutes of the bike from last year.
Transition 2
  • 01m 52s
What would you do differently?:

couldn't find my running belt - lost some time here.

Run
  • 26m 1s
  • 3.1 miles
  • 08m 23s  min/mile
Comments:

Completely flat run...not much shade.
I took 5 minutes off my run time from last year. But I wish I was faster. I think I could be faster. I want to be faster.
What would you do differently?:

I tried running without socks but I got blisters on my arches after mile 2. I tried to save time after the swim by not putting on socks.
Post race
Warm down:

jogged around a bit
They don't do chip timing - there were 110 men and 44 women (not counting teams) I was 11/44.

You are one hoss chick! Congratulations on a great race and the hardware.  How far were you behind the first place finisher?  I'm sure that you'll get it next year.

Pittsburgh, my heart is in Glasgow
Subject: RE: Johnstown YMCA Triathlon
wow, nice bike average! There was some pretty frustrating wind on those first 8 or so miles. I really really love this bike course a lot, and this race has a special place in my heart....it was my first race 3 years ago. Awesome finish for you too...yay hardwear!

(PS, I THOUGHT there were a disproportionate amount of guys there!)
