Swim was decent. Got in the water a little too early. Had to tread water like 3-4 minutes...Didnt tire me out but it was awhile. Got a good clean start and immediately grabbed ahold of a fast girl's feet and stayed on them for the whole trip until we merged with Oly guys.

Bike felt good. Not pushing a big gear but spining nicely. Course was flat and nice roads. Very pleased with the speed and bike perferomance. the confidence was helped by not being passed by too many people.

Comments:

Came into T2 very slow..making sure I got out of my shoes. Had to sit down and put on my shoes.
What would you do differently?:

Needs some improvement here.

Comments:

Legs felt pretty shaky at the start. Actually took like a mile to warm-up. was focusd on staying relaxed and slowing breathing at the start. Of all the things to bring the legs back...it was a big hill. I started feeling pretty good after that. Poured some water over my head at Mile 2 aid station and that was a great idea.

Overall... I was hoping to run a little faster.

Event comments:

No lines at the porta pots and very well organized from the race standpoint. The awarads took a long time to start and the actual race started late. The race starting late is critical given the heat.
