Comments:

My actual swim was great, passed a bunch of people but also got stuck behind a few people which slowed me down. Plus I really took my time getting out of the pool to the T1 area.
What would you do differently?:

Set my start time quicker - to swim with quicker people.

This is where it all went to crap for me. Within minutes of being on the bike my back went and I struggled from here on to the very end. Not good at all.

  • 01m
Run
  • 33m 16s

  • 10m 42s  min/mile
Comments:

Not good, almost got to the stage where I DNF'ed. I walked a good 2 miles of the run due to the back strain that I went into this with, really dissapointed.

So annoyed with how this all went.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My xxxx'ing back

Event comments:

It would have been a great race for me personally if I hadn't have had the back issues. For a small race its nice one, I will be back next year simply to destroy my time from this year (as long as my back works that is)
