Comments:

I never said this before but the swim was short. Since the swim is my best leg in my age group it didn't help me.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.
Transition 1
  • 00m 54s
Comments:

Got my left foot in easily but right foot got messed up. Strap pulled out of shoe and I had to get off bike to fix. This probably cost me 2 minutes at least.
What would you do differently?:

Put right foot in first as I normally do.
Bike

Comments:

Bike split was slow due to shoe problem. At one round about I almost stopped when a car entered and rider in front had to break. He almost went down.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, great ride. Had some back and forth with my competition which made it a fun ride as we kept passing each other and making comments.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Comments:

Great run for me. I felt good for most of the run. My competition passed me with about 200 yards to go and I couldn't stay with him.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Event comments:

My goal was to win age group. The guy that won had beat me by over 2 minutes in our last race. Since he beat me by 11 seconds this race it was a huge improvement.
