Good swim, went hard, expected to be a bit faster.

Pretty quick for me.

Not too bad. 214 W for the ride. Well below my FTP, but IM training is taking its toll

Get better at holding FTP for a race of this duration.

Comments:

Horrible side stitch with 1/2 mile to go. Slowed me way down, probably cost me 30s. No clue where it came from - I didn't speed up, and I wasn't drinking anything. Weird.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, a good run. A bit slower than last year (sans the stitch), but again IM training is rocking my world right now.
Post race
Warm down:

Walk, hang out with wife and kids.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

IM training.

Event comments:

Good race. Thanks to all the volunteers as well!
