Comments:

Great ride hammered it as much as I could. Few if any gear changes. Staid in the bars for all but the return on rte 28 and a few uncleared road crossings ... great ride I'm very very proud of it
What would you do differently?:

Pick up some of the low speed sections most of the time I was at 24mph, but an average of 20 means there were some bad low sections

  • 00m 44s
Comments:

14 seconds off of last year I doubt I can do better
26th

left the water bottle behind

Comments:

Took a sip on the way out, too bad it wasn't water never do that again

First .5 was a nice pace but I not sure where I lost the 50 seconds I was hoping for

All and all a good run
What would you do differently?:

Just push harder I didn't even feel that dead at the finish line its only 2 miles just go
Post race
Warm down:

walked around, went out and found Bruce to run him home

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Just need to keep pushing that run

A few more laps wouldn't hurt either

Event comments:

Much more organized, racks were ready at T2
