I just don't have the leg strength that some of these other competitors have. also my hamstrings started cramping up on the way back from the turn-around. but i did ok, i just need to get stronger leg muscles for future events.
What would you do differently?:

ride in easier gears, don't push to hard so often.

Course: course wasn't what i was expecting. started off on the bike and rode a mile or so, then took a right and went up bogus hill. It felt like a good 3 or 4 mile incline. turned around and went back down the hill and followed hill road which was fairly easy the rest of the way. Got to the end and turned around and headed back, there was a headwind the whole way back. a good solid course though.
