Comments:

I felt great on the bike but evidently I blocked someone and got a 2 minute penalty. I know when I got it simply because the motorcycle was right next to me writing my number down. Don't recall blocking anyone, oh well can't fight that one.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing

Good transition again, saw another wreck at the dismount line - I see that all the time, don't know what people are thinking.

Comments:

really bad run, but I can't complain - I went into this race with just about zero training for the last month. I expected that I'd breakdown at some part during the race due to lack of training.
What would you do differently?:

Actually train for the race.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Being a bum for the last month.

Event comments:

Good race, I enjoy the scenery here. I'm moving from Florida at the end of the month so no more tri's here for the rest of the year. Planning on coming back for St. Anthony's again next year - can't wait!
