Pre-race routine:

Last race of this series for the year, so I got there early to get a good spot on a rack. Laid out my T area and BS'ed w/ friends.
Event warmup:

Struggled into my wetsuit in the heat and swam about 100 yds.

Good swim, though I think I was overheating a little in the wetsuit (or maybe it is just that I was worried about that and concentrating on it). Sighted great and was able to draft pretty well.

Didn't not feel good on the run at all. Was on the verge of heaving up everything a few times but pressed on anyways. Just tried to concentrate on a smooth efficient stride and cadence. AVG HR - 176
