Use the split times on my watch.

Need to work on bike dismount. Only cost a few seconds but it could be improved.
Best T2 of the season though. Racked bike then helmet & sunglasses off. bike shoes off, running shoes on. Put on hat, grabbed a gel and go.

Improved bike dismount. More fluidity needed.

Need to work on running again, not just jogging fast. I felt comfortable on the run. I need to feel exhausted. It wasn't until the last 2/3 mile that I felt like I was running fast.
What would you do differently?:

Need to train on the run more. Speed workouts essential.
Post race
Warm down:

none

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Need more run training. Could use swim lessons too. Had a strong bike.

Event comments:

There needs to be mile markers on the run course.
