I was huffing pretty good out there, but towards the end of the 2 loops, got stronger as it flattened out a bit, and gave us some downhills.

nothing here either. I'm happy with what I was able to do.

Man, was I gassed! I really gave a hard effort on the bike, and had to catch my breath again in the transition.

Probably could've saved another :30 here and just kept moving.

Kept cool by dumping water on my head at every station.
After the first 1/2 mile or so, my legs came back to me! This is the quickest I've ever had that feeling come back to me on the run.

Nothing here. My goal was to break 8:00 min/mile pace, but I'll get it soon.
