Had nothing left in the tank, this was my last event for the year and I tapered well back in August, so I just didn't want to give up the season.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Was on the down side of a earlier taper, my limited endurance is fading at this time of the year. Time to start all over in a few months.

Event comments:

I would rate higher but the weeds in the lake were terrible! Slow you down and drag you under terrible.
