It was too hard to summarize the race in a blog post so Karel and I decided to make a video discussing our race experience. In this video we talk about....
-How I trained/prepared for this race (and why I didn't ride my tri bike more than a few times)
-Pre-race workouts and why its beneficial to train on the race course
-Managing nerves/expectations
-Pre-race fueling (and being organized and prepared)
-Swim and T1 execution
-Karel's thoughts on participating in a relay (bike leg)
-How my mind was impacted after receiving a penalty
-Serving the penalty
-Putting together a strong run off the bike and breaking 1:40 for the first time in many many years
