Definitely my strongest part of the tri. Will continue to swim at least 2x per week, but really need to focus on the bike.

Comments:

Didn't seem like a hard course, but I just couldn't get it going. My 4th lap seemed to be my strongest and I really seemed to make up ground on the 4th lap. Don't know why I waited so long, or if everyone else just got slower.
What would you do differently?:

I need a bike computer, shoes, and a lot more training on the bike.

Run

Comments:

Was very well hydrated - didn't need anything at the aid stations. PAce was good (just under 7:45), but I think I could've pushed it more. Slow start and I hate running in loose gravel.
What would you do differently?:

Run a little faster.
Post race

Walked

My abilities on the bicycle
