Need to improve bike times significantly the bike is the biggest let down at the moment but also teh area I can make the most improvement just by increasing training

train more and bike harder not be as concerned with saving myself for the run

bit of an anticlimax

inexperience in pacing, not enough training

Event comments:

This is my first race so nothing to compare to however I will do it again next year as it will be a useful benchmark. I was not particularly pleased with my overall place but recognise that I have lots to learn and plenty of room for improvement. Can't wait for the next one
