Pre-race routine:

my buddy woke me up at 4am instead of 4:30. Annoyed by that but whatever. Drank Boost, then packed and got into the car. Stopped at McDs on the way down for a egg & cheese McMuffin, which was awesome

Event warmup:

swam for awhile. Froze my arse off.

Comments:

My calf was bugging me most of the time, so I really laid back on the bike.
What would you do differently?:

I need to improve my bike time by a significant margin. I should be pushing 20mph and I just didn't have it in me in this race to do so because I didn't want to be injured for the run.

Comments:

I loved this run but I should have dropped a few minutes off my time. My calf was still bugging me so I really didn't think it was the right time to be burning myself up on the run.
What would you do differently?:

nothing
Post race
Warm down:

eat my face off

What limited your ability to perform faster:

calf was bugging me the whole time.

Event comments:

This really is an excellent race, although the cold morning kind of sux. I haven't trained much since St. Anthony's, so this race was at best a training session for me. I still enjoyed myself.
