Comments:

I can't explain Farmland Rd I wish Keith was out there to give me a better reference.

I also drank way too much electrolyte between the start and the entrance to the loop, nearly half the bottle (12oz)
What would you do differently?:

Ride faster on farmland rd
Transition 2
  • 01m 50s
Comments:

Lost some time because the exit was at the bottom and I went to the top first
What would you do differently?:

Exit at the bottom, which means pay attention during setup to where the entrance/exit is

Comments:

First mile was great an 8:12, second mile the wheels came off I was at 19:00.
Started over drinking and got the belly slosh

Great sprint for the finish
What would you do differently?:

Less drinking, slow up on the first mile
Post race
Warm down:

Cola, stretching, dry shirt, lots of walking, roll out calfs with pain stick before got in the car

What limited your ability to perform faster:

New race for me, I'm saying it was the wind on the bike but I'm not certain. Need to get some 8 mile runs in

Event comments:

Great race, loved the town and the pasta dinner
