Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of training

Event comments:

I went into this race severely undertrained, I was not motivated to carve out time to continue to train after Boulder 70.3. I've kept up the running, but only logged 25 miles on my bike the month of July. So, was just trying to see how little I could do and still have a good out come. Turns out you really do need to train if you want to do well! Ha!
