Comments:

Took over 5 minutes off my swim from last year, still not speedy but pretty good for me.
What would you do differently?:

Swim competitively when I was a kid.

Comments:

Lost my front derailleur in the first mile but I was in the small ring so fortunately I could still climb. Got down to 4 mph on the worst of the climb but no walk of shame. I couldn't peddle at more than 24 mph without the large ring so I just had to coast until I slowed down. All in all pretty happy with this part.
Transition 2
  • 01m 19s
Comments:

Left my shoes clipped in for the first time and it worked out pretty well.
Run
  • 52m 14s
  • 6.21 miles
  • 08m 25s  min/mile
Comments:

Started to overheat about half way through the run but pretty happy otherwise. The ice on the run was a lifesaver, just kept putting it down my shirt.
What would you do differently?:

Just more training...as always.
