Update: Race Results

So, final race results are in!

Swim plus the run up the beach to transition:  18:50  (128/321)

T1 2:  2:06

Bike:  53:59  (184/321)

T2:  1:37

Run:  35:10  (290/321)

So, rocking the swim, good good, bike better than expected, excellent, run with significant room for improvement.

The more I have thought about the race and the more that I have talked to people, I think I have a game plan for my next race.  I need to do one full brick per week and at least one 4+ mile run per week, being careful to stretch and take care of my feet and calves as much as possible.  I made the mistake of training two sports for this race, and the results showed, so time to live and learn.

Transitions, as slow as I feel, I am actually moving pretty good in transition, not going to make any big changes there.

The biggest change right now comes in a trip to the bike shop to talk to the guys about a pair of tri-bars.    Then its simply getting back on a good training schedule, especially with the Olympic distance looming only two months away.

I'm hooked, I can't stop, now I'll just have to motivate myself out of bed in the morning to keep the game plan on track :)
