Don't know if I would have worked as hard without the guy I was flip flopping with for 3rd position.

walking around eating and drinking.

Lack of natural ability and history of athletics

Event comments:

moving from 45th last year to 3 this feels really good. Cut my time from 39 to 35 minutes despite it going from a swim to a run at the beginning. If it had been a swim, I would have been even faster.
