  • 437 yards
  • 1h 23m 41s / 100 yards
Comments:

Started on the outside, but stayed too far on the outside and went way too wide around both buoys.
What would you do differently?:

Sight better and more often.
Transition 1
  • 02m 47s
Comments:

Took too much time with all aspects of T1.
What would you do differently?:

Not dry off as much.
Bike
  • 47h 38m
  • 14.8 miles
  • 0.31 mile/hr
Comments:

Started too fast and my legs tightend up. Half way through my hamstrings tighted up, which slow me down, especially up the last hill.
What would you do differently?:

Start slower.
Transition 2
  • 01m 35s
Comments:

Was exhausted once I got off the bike, and had to walk out of transition to get my HR under control.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, it was related to the bike.
Run
  • 30h 35m 9s
  • 3.2 miles
  • 9h 33m 29s  min/mile
Comments:

Legs were tightening up and cramping. I had to stop 3 times in the first mile to stretch them out, as I didn't want to pull anything. After the 1st mile, or so, I felt better and was able to pick up my pace. I could have used some water between the transition and mile 2.
What would you do differently?:

Unsure.
Post race
Warm down:

Spent lots of time stretching my legs and some easy jogging.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Cramping in the legs, bringing down my HR in the later part of the bike.

Event comments:

Enjoyed the events - lots of volunteers.
