This was a PR on my swim - I was very happy when I got out of the water 9 minutes faster than last year.... I'm not a swimmer so this was a good time for me. Really tried to swim hard - typically I muttle through the swim - this time after about 10 min warming up I was actually racing the swim....

WOO HOO.... 2nd overall woman on the bike 20.8 Average....

Not much else to say - except I was very happy with my time! This is a hilly course and so 20.8 was great - up from 19.9 last year. Passed lots of people and made up the ground I lost on the swim. Had a little problems with my gears switching up to big cog in front...Lost one of my gu's could have really used that!!

Felt good on the run - walked a couple of times for just a few seconds - carried water - very helpful. Had a very strong 1.5 mile finish. Hilly, hot run... felt good.
