I will post more details later, but here's the quick summary...I didn't have any really well thought out goals, but I had thought about these stretch goals in the week leading up to the race:
1st woman on swim, top 10 overall on swim
sub-1:30 on the bike
sub-3:00 total time
Here's how it went:
Swim: 22:24- 1st woman, **UPDATE** 3rd overall
T1: 3:15
Bike: 1:29:20- made my goal, it was tough, but I got the job done :)
T2: 1:03
Run: 1:04:00- pretty good for a TOUGH run!
Total time: 2:59:58- More later, but I knew with 1.2 miles to go that I was cutting it close and nearly threw up with about 100 yards to go because I was sprinting trying to make it in under 3:00. I was the 10th woman overall and 3rd in my age group.

Jeff did the 1/2 IM distance Aquabike and crushed the swim and then finished the bike with a HUGE smile. His times were really great and he did it on his mountain bike.
More later...
