Warm down:

fell on ground and cramped up. had to be stretched out and rubbed down

What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of appropriate training for speed on this event. Did a great job preparing myself for endurance. I had the endurance to carry on the whole race no problem. Just need to train for speed now

Event comments:

Well put on, love to compete in all Tri-OKC races because they are well put on, well volunteered, and the courses are perfect.
