Focus on gliding more with the wetsuit

The bike course kicked my butt. I looked down at my computer and was thrilled to see I was going 42mph, then I remembered I had to go back up the same hill.
What would you do differently?:

I need to use my gears more effectively. Over spun my legs towards the end and paid for it on the run.

Comments:

T1 plus T2 3:00 minutes, wetsuit did not cost me that much time, and gained me time during the swim.

Post race
Warm down:

Look for my wife, hope her and the kids can carry me.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of dedicated hill training.
