Comments:

At the start of mile 2 I realized I had too much left in the tank. The bike usually caches me out. In this case I didn't cycle well and then could have ran harder.
What would you do differently?:

Come out of the shoot faster on the run.

Still fun going to the Chicago Triathlon. It's crowded and it's hot. But it's a fun race.
