Really bummed that swim was cancelled since that was the only reason I had signed up for this event. But I understand, it was too dangerous to swim.

Bike computer was functioning and I didn't set up my Garmin properly with the multi-sport function. So I had no idea what I was doing on the bike. Slower than I wanted.
What would you do differently?:

Make sure my equipment is setup properly.

Tried to keep pushing myself and run as fast as I could. I passsed 2 people in my age group and made sure that I stayed ahead of them. Thought my pace was faster based on my watch but I guess not.
What would you do differently?:

Just need to train to be faster to do anything differently.
Post race
Warm down:

walked around

Event comments:

This whole week has been a mess. Kids sick, work crazy, husband nursing serious road rash and my entire reason of practicing an open water swim canned by a tropical storm. Plus a fun family weeking of camping at the park was cancelled b/c of the weather. So I was pretty much in a funk this morning. But I'm happy to be home safe and sound and I'm done whinning! Next race: Baltimore Marathon :-)
