Decent ride. I lost a lot having to go all the way up the hill to the visitor center.
What would you do differently?:

worked the last hill more aggressively.

Transition was too small to have movement through with bike. When I racked my bike I discovered everyone had stacked their transition bags behind my spot.
What would you do differently?:

Better rack spot.

Comments:

1st trail run, and I didn't like it. I was able to run the whole course, legs weren't too bad. Unstable trail caused my slow down.
What would you do differently?:

Been faster, practiced on crappy rock surface more!!!
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Last hill on the bike, and the trail run

Event comments:

I imagine some people will rate this race low because it wasn't very organized, but knowing the course before hand helps beat the disorganization. I wish there was more water on the run, and I really wish they would get off of the damn trail.
