Comments:

Swim went fine. I thought I might be able to do it a little faster but I felt good coming out of the water.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing aside from keep working on my shoulder flexibility and keep swimming.
Transition 1
  • 01m 18s
Comments:

My fastest sprint T1 that I can remember but I can keep shaving seconds off.
Bike
  • 37m 56s
  • 12.43 miles
  • 19.66 mile/hr
Comments:

Slower than last year by 56 seconds but I trained through the race so I wasn't expecting to necessarily be able to put up the same time as I did on fresh legs.
What would you do differently?:

Ride more in the early spring.
Transition 2
  • 01m 2s
Comments:

Nothing much to say about T2.
Run
  • 24m 35s
  • 3.11 miles
  • 07m 54s  min/mile
Comments:

I was hoping to puch it under 24 but i faded a few seconds per mile each mile. Tired legs didn't help. I also didn't really go for broke out there either. The only uncomfortable portion was the 3 minute climb up the hill after mile 2.
What would you do differently?:

Not slack off coming out of marathon training!
Post race
Warm down:

Went home and rode the bike to get the rest of my scheduled bike training in for the day.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training in April and May. Tired legs from IM build.

Event comments:

Great local race that I will keep doing.
