Pre-race routine:

Google said it was an hour drive so left home at 4:30 to be there when transition opened at 5:30. Unfortunately it's a 1.5 hour drive but still made it in plenty of time.
Event warmup:

the 1/2 hour difference in drive time meant no time for warmup.

Seems like everyone did a decent job of reporting accurate 400m times because I only passed one person and didn't get passed by anyone myself.
What would you do differently?:

nothing...it was a decent swim beat last year's time by :13

Comments:

this was a very tough run as I knew it would be when I was cooking my legs on the bike.
What would you do differently?:

I'm wondering if I would have taken the time to get my watch off the bike if I would have pushed harder and not let my pace fall off but I beat last year's time by :48
Post race
Warm down:

walked for a bit and stretched and showered.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of endurance training

took 5:03 off of last year's time...hard to be dissappointed with that but still long to be more competitive.
