What limited your ability to perform faster:

Ruined my nutrition by opening up and pouring salt stick tabs into my mixes thinking I wouldn't be able to notice the difference. Big mistake! Was literally gagging every sip on bike and run. The heat sucked but generally I need to learn to get out of my comfort zone more and embrace the pain

Event comments:

Gatorade on only 2 aid stations on run course which was a surprise to everyone. Cars allowed on bike course and at one point had to ride into oncoming traffic to avoid a caravan of cars that had passed us and then came up to a stop sign
