I am not sure what to think about my race at the Tauranga Half Ironman.
I finished in 17th place overall, same as last year (average), but 2min slower (negative). I was 3rd age grouper, same as last year (average), but won my age group, was 2nd last year (positive).
picture quality (average)
I swam about the same time (average), despite this year’s awful currents and a mean out-going tide (positive); I rode about 8min slower despite riding a tri spoke front wheel and a disc on the back (negative), but I did manage to run 7min faster (positive), but probably cause I didn’t ride as fast (average)...
3 x positive
5 x average
2 x negative
I think that about sums it up....average, however I guess I shouldn’t be so blasé I am now the 2009 National Half Ironman Champion 35-39yr (positive)....the cheques should start rolling into my mail box any day now
4 x positive
5 x average
2 x negative

The way you are banking into that corner on the run makes it look like you are going really really fast even though you weren't. Positive.
