Great run, was really humid and there was little breeze so I took water at each aid station and drank some and dumped the rest over my head to keep cool.

Nothing for this leg.

Small technical difficulty when my right shoe popped off the cleat as I left my bike rack, I had to stop and re-attach it, lost a few seconds there.

Event comments:

Disappointed that this turned into a du from the original tri format, but was a good race for me. Too bad there were so many in my age group that likewise had a good race else I might have placed better in my AG. Note: If I had performed at the same paces during the sprint, I would have been top 10 and would have wn my age group.
