good timing

very smooth transition

decent course
What would you do differently?:

work on the transition so quads aren't as cramped and give me a slower race pace

What limited your ability to perform faster:

pedal falling over; inadequate mufti-sport training; late arriv al to the start

Event comments:

need to announce the heats via intercom inside the y building. decent markings but mile markers would help.
