Pre-race routine:

Up at 5 to leave at 6 to ride down. Was good timing. Tried to have a little oatmeal. Kinda forgot to eat it. Had some Stinger bites. Not a good thing. Should have just stuck to coffee. Sat around for a 2 hours waiting for my wave. Dead last. Toes were cold. It was 45deg when we got up.
Event warmup:

Took a couple of short sprints for 20-30 strokes and then we all got yelled at for being to far fwd. Well put a buoy out. Oh peed too.

Comments:

Did not line up well. Cut on the inside corner. Started out well but got excited and did swim my race. Don't know if it would have changed anything. It was a fast crowd. I was a little slower but 6 guys in my group can in around 13.
What would you do differently?:

Train a little more. I have been lucky to swim 20k this year total. Gotta hit the pool more.

Saw Y headed out of T1. Knew I catch her in a little bit. First mile'ish is a half of car lane. Got stuck there but was probably good to get the legs going. Rest was good.

Stop eating all the cookies.

Comments:

Not bad for a tri run with only couple runs for the last 3 weeks. Everyone cheers for the guy in the tutu. Love it. this a a lot of out back and half cheer me on. The other half look at me like WTF did I step into the Twilight Zone. I run with a tutu and tiara in honor of Annalise, little girl that died of brain cancer. We also do a 5k to raise money for research and family care. I saw her on the way out Lakeshore she was cheering me on. On the way back I got a nice hug she got a smelly, sweaty one. That took to the finish with a little more spring in my step. Y was gaining on me, can't have that.
What would you do differently?:

Could not get the calves loosened up.

Waited for Y.

Way to go!   Wish I could have been there, but I wouldn't have run with the guy in a tutu!  ??JK

Glad you had some fun with it, I know the Peltons appreciate it.
