Long trip, but ran.
Had to put on shorts (pool swim, no wet suit -- shorts drag a lot)
Not bad still

Again, time included T2, was quick so I called it 30 seconds but don't know.

Hills were rough, but I could've done worse -- did have 1 or 2 "traffic issues" though.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

run

Event comments:

Good beginner-level race but you gotta watch a few things. You have to count your own laps -- 7 1/2 swimming & 7 biking. Therun/bike closed is not closed and coincides with other on-campus events -- basketball tourney & students moving out of dorms -- every year. No water stops on the run at all.
Also, limited pool size makes for 1 1/2 hour wait for some to start swim (noting that 3/4 the racers finished in < 1 1/2 hrs).
