Comments:

Never got into a groove. Way too much sighting. I haven't been sighting enough recently...and I ended up over doing it this time. I went straight, but I wasn't streamlined hardly at all. Very bad performance.
What would you do differently?:

Sight less.
Transition 1
  • 01m 24s
Comments:

Before T1 I was 564 / 714 overall.
After T1 I was 465 / 714 overall.
Happy with transition. I'm used to doing shorter races so I'm used to zipping through transitions.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.
Bike
  • 2h 38m 53s
  • 56 miles
  • 21.15 mile/hr
Comments:

Couldn't keep power up for some reason....maybe due to being on a new bike.

Swapped positions with last years female pro winner, Malaika Homo for a few miles on the bike. Pretty cool experience.
What would you do differently?:

Not switch to a new bike 2 weeks before the race, even if it is totally rad.
Transition 2
  • 01m 29s
Comments:

T2 felt very fluid. This was the first time I have ever put on socks in transition, surprisingly it didn't add too much time.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing

Comments:

Started have cramping issues in right leg at mile 9. Slowed down quite a bit. Walked remaining aid stations.
What would you do differently?:

Prepare better with longer brick workouts.
