Swim
Comments: A little disappointed with the swim. Must get my HR down if I'm going that slow. A wetsuit for IMFL will help. Avg HR 152, max 168. Too high. I really didn't settle in to my stroke until 600-700 meters into the swim. Transition 1
Comments: Trouble getting up the boat ramp because there were tons of big chunks of gravel up until it was about knee deep. I kind of duck walked to keep most of my weight off of them and a volunteer steadied me. Must have looked great. Bike
Comments: I am going to have to work very hard to keep myself under control for IMFL. I am too eager to lift the pace to stay ahead of people when I pass them. My avg HR for this was either 140 or 145. I recovered on some downhills, so that drops the avg down. Had to relieve myself either 2 or 3 times on the fly. Hydration on the bike doesn't seem to be lacking.... Transition 2
Comments: I don't really recall this transition. Must have been uneventful. Run
Comments: What happened that last mile? I thought I actually sped up. Post race
Warm down: 17 mile ride with debbie. Last updated: 2006-08-14 12:00 AM

Wake, drink coffee, eat a clif bar and half a power bar. No more clif bars before races. I burped pieces of it up all day long.
Ride out a mile to check that the bike was OK. 10m swim before the start. Scraped my foot on the boat ramp curb, so that hurt the rest of the day.
