Again, placed higher on my bike than my run and swim. After the 1st loop I definately was surprised at how much climbing was involved on this course. The rides last weekend with Jason were definately a blessing in disguise and has my motivation up on working on climbing. My whole summer is gonna be climb,climb, climb!
What would you do differently?:

Not much, I was happy with my bike, always feel I could have pushed harder, but I dunno!:)

This transition was next to nothing, had Dwayne right behind me pushing it and I knew it,so there wasn't any messin' 'round here!

Event comments:

:42 seconds seperated 3rd,4th, and 5th place! 4th was :10 seconds ahead of me. We rode the whole bike together and I left them with about 3 miles to go on the bike and they both caught me on the run and I just couldn't keep pace...Oh well, next time. definately motivated me to keep working hard!!!!
