Felt ok, wandered off course a bit, got kicked in the face really hard early on...shocked that it took 25mins. Felt like 22.

Go out faster and find faster feet.

Comments:

Hot! Finished run around 11am, must have been 85d and muggy. This was ~20s slower than anticipated, but everyone's time was slow for the run. Also, no one coming from behind or catchable in AG, although I did pick off 4-5 runners in the last 3miles.
Post race
Warm down:

Light stretch

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Damn swim speed, sighting.

Event comments:

Great race, but the start times for the Oly race are crazy. Time to turn this into a festival like the Philly Tri; sprint on Saturday and Oly on Sunday, with start times at ~7am.
