Felt like it was a good ride. Course was pretty bumpy in spots. Hills were fair.

Pretty good ride, but could have gone harder
Transition 2
  • 02m 20s
Comments:

Couldn't find my damn bike rack! Poor scouting on my part, was looking on the wrong side of the transition area.
What would you do differently?:

Make sure I know beforehand where I need to go for my bike rack. That should have been in my head before the race even started. Stupid.

Comments:

Developed a bad stitch in my side which caused me to walk twice. Not very happy about it. Otherwise, run was decent.

Not sure - nothing I could do about the pain in my side.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Stupidity in T2, stitch in my side during the run.

Event comments:

Very well run race for a first time event. They might be able to re-route the run to make it a little less hilly. Two of the hills were very challenging.
