Comments:

Would have been more comfortable in a sleeveless suit, but I was still fighting the last war (2 years ago) when it was so cold.

Wasn't comfortable on the swim--kept having to hold back--but navigation was good and time was faster than last year. Distance is dubious.
Transition 1
  • 03m 32s
Bike
  • 1h 15m 37s
  • 24.85 miles

Ugh. Slow.
Out Back

Time 35:42 39.40
NP 182 180
Cad 90 89
Speed 20.3 18.3

So same cadence and power = 2mph slower/3min longer into the wind.

  • 01m 27s
Run
  • 38m 5s
  • 4.97 miles
  • 07m 40s  min/mile
Comments:

This hurt but was very satisfying. In the last half mile I said out loud "make it stop." Finishing was the best way to do that.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Poor bike strength. I hope that IM-focused training is the reason.

Event comments:

As always, a very good way to start the season.
