Results Analysis

I screwed up royally on T1. Over 5 minutes is gross. I would have gotten 3rd place easily if my time was less by only a minute. It really should have been less by about 3 minutes. If I kept the same strategy as the last tri it would have been a lot less. Huge lesson learned.

My run time was the fastest OVERALL!! That makes me very happy.

There is just so much work to do on my swimming.

Mantra going into this race: Be like a child, respond easy to changes, let people be who they are. I was Patient. Cooler temps were helpful. I had a well thought out pacing plan and stuck to it.

 10.12.24 - Boston 10K for Women  This race was formerly known as the Bonnie Bell.  In 1980 I was 14 years old so my mother convinced me to run this race for the first time with her. Here we are!  I hated that race. However the pain has duller over the past 40 years or so and ironically, this race has become one of my favorite races of all time. It has an upbeat feel and a flat fast course.
