Good T-1. Only 1 issue with forgetting to take watch off which caused wetsuit to hang up when taking arm out but took care of it on the run. Jogged thru the lanes to transition, no walking.

Comments:

Determined to get into a slow and easy rhythm right away. A bit crampy in guts, worked that out. Walked water stops every mile. Really surprised that the run actually went as good as it did since a minth ago I wasnt doing much of anything for workouts. Just really stayed positive and fun. No finish time pressure, just having a great day.
Post race
Warm down:

Super surprised I was able to get so close to 3 hrs!! Great times with isis and mav. Met michele and randy at the post race gig, great to see them!

Happy to run in BT gear, Isis and I looked like BT dorks!! heehee

What limited your ability to perform faster:

10 lbs and training...the usual limiters.

Event comments:

Plenty of good food, fun music and friends all around. Really missed the entire BT crew!!
