Comments:

My run was very dissapointing, I tried to make some gains over the course of the year but I still struggled, this was my second time running 21km, one 1/2 marathon and the race day segment,,,,bad idea i thinks, more milage, needed, but for my first HIM run, and 3rd Tri (one sprint and one Oly) before this one, I learned alot and am really glad i did the race.
What would you do differently?:

Train longer Train Harder and learn to eat on the bike going up hill
Post race
Warm down:

Ate and drank

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Time to train and my own excuses, but I learnt from it I guess

Event comments:

I liked it and had an OK time, the event and accomidations sort of broke the bank and will deffinetly make it hard to get into the longer distance races in the future, will most likely be limited to 2-3 total race a season, two cheap little ones and 1 longer good one like this.
