Decent swim; slightly choppy. Didn't feel great, but wasn't struggling either.
Transition 1
  • 02m 56s
Comments:

Bike gearing jumped when I started to mount and I almost crashed. Huge transition area.
What would you do differently?:

Ensure gearing is ready to go.

Great bike. Second lap was really hampered by slower riders from the sprint. Too many turn arounds on the course too. Really slowed down a great ride.

  • 02m 12s
Run

  • 09m 32s  min/mile
Comments:

Stomach hurt at first on the run. Straightened out after a bit. Took no poweraid for the first 3 or 4 miles. Only water.
What would you do differently?:

Think this was a low electrolyte problem.
