Comments:

Hard a hard time on the hill but fought through it - was extremely happy once it was downhill.
What would you do differently?:

Do more hill practice (both up and down) - my thigh muscles were super tight after going really hard on the downhill.

Warm down:

Walked around, ate free food

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of proper training

Event comments:

There were a lot of drink stations! 4 I think?
