Comments:

I think I may retire ensure as a pre-race nutrition, It's ok for triathlon but it's not good in the stomach when you start off on the run. It was a tough day out there, everyone's time seemed to be off what I expected. True the winner still ran a 1:14 but last year I think a 1:12 won this race. Air was very heavy ahead of the approaching T-storm.
Post race
Warm down:

Went back to room, donned my Ultramax staff shirt and went back to the finish line and cut timing chips off of runners.

Event comments:

No post race activities because of the Thunderstorm.
