Felt FAST (meaning hard), and it was fast. My fastest run here in 3 years. I was working, but still in control.
What would you do differently?:

Not much.

Comments:

Pushed pretty good. Counted that I was around 15th at the turn-around, and only got passed by 2-3 people after that! NICE! And a bike PR here (brakes rubbed 2 years ago, and last year it was SUPER windy).
Transition 2
  • 00m 41s
Run
  • 18m 19s
  • 3 miles
  • 06m 07s  min/mile
Comments:

Legs were SUPER heavy coming off the bike. I could feel my lack of endurance coming back from my heel injury. Was still relatively happy with a 6:19 first mile (uphill). Wanted to only pick it up. Mile 2 was 6:07, and the final mile (with a downhill) was 5:50.
Post race
Warm down:

Ate food. Does that count?
