Ironman Canada Race Report

Ironman Canada was completed almost one month ago today, some highlights:

- 1853rd overall compared to 2277th last year
- swim 1:19:37 (PB) (last year = 1:33:54)
- T1 7:58 vs 8:01
- bike 7:06:46 vs 7:15:52
- T2 5:58 (PB) vs 11:03
- run 5:01:01 (PB) vs 7:04:55
- overall 13:41:18 (PB) vs 16:13:44

- swim was solid, I think I went a lot more straight this year than last year and I was pretty excited when I got out of the water
- bike was good, I mostly took it easy and had to get off the bike A LOT for bathroom breaks. Hills were extremely painful and it was fantastic seeing Lisa and Co after Yellow Lake.(http://connect.garmin.com/activity/46800062)
- run was good, I ran pretty fast when I was running but I ran into some nutrition troubles in the middle and walked/messed up for awhile. Really wanted 4:20, but I guess maybe just need to train harder next time? (http://connect.garmin.com/activity/46800041)
