Comments:

Had a great run. I wanted to push the first run and then go from there. I think I could have run 30 seconds faster and still had plenty left for the rest of the race.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe push a little harder on the first run.

Here's where I probably messed up. I wanted to conserve on the bike but I really laid up way too much. I should have been easily 5 minutes faster on the bike. I just goofed this up!
What would you do differently?:

Pushed harder on the bike. I had it but just didn't use it.
Transition 2
  • 01m 20s
Comments:

Well, by this time my arms, legs, feet, and everything else were frozen. Made getting through transition fun!
What would you do differently?:

Run

  • 6.21 miles
  • 06m 37s  min/mile
Comments:

Well, not too bad considering conditions. I couldn't feel my feet at all until 2 miles in. By this time there was really no one around me putting any pressure on so I kind of settled into a realatively easy pace. I probably could have been about a minute faster had I been pushed.
What would you do differently?:

Run harder.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nice physical effort but mentally slipped alitte bit on the bike.
