Went better than expected. Could have gone faster in retrospect. Bike did some mystery gear shifts on me. Need to get it adjusted.

T2 went pretty well. Did the shoes off while riding thing. Almost tripped after I was off my bike. Pretty unexciting other than that.

Felt awesome. Didn't get passed at all. Probably my best kick ever. Would have been proud of my run even if I was fresh. Arguably one of my best running races ever. Could have gone a bit faster...
