So I made a spontaneous decision (yes I know, Blair spontaneous? yes, I am feeling okay) last night at 11:30pm and decided to do the Aquathlon up in Solana Beach this morning. I hadn't raced since San Jose in June because of conflicts with work and Saturday races. Thanks to Tammy's good advice, and special goggle delivery at 11:40pm (since mine are at the pool) I got out there and raced.
-Fasting: 80
-Breakfast: 1 and 1/2 pieces of toast with PB, a banana, and 8oz gatorade
Only covered with 1 unit
-Post 10 minute warm up run: 120 (drank a Juicy Juice (15gs), took 0.3 units, detached from pump, put wetsuit on)
-Didn't test in T1, but drank 1/2 of a Juicy Juice (7gs), left pump off
-Post race: 168
1000m swim: 15:59
T1 + 5k Splits=25:06 (blah)
Total: 41:04
(age group win)
Special thanks to Tammy for riding up to cheer for me.
