Good swim. No real changes the boyes were on my right the whold time perfect for me because I breath out the right only. No problems except people stopping and standing up and I had to and now have a small cut on my foot.

Comments:

Good course. A few hills but not bad. I need to do some hill work but not enough hills in toledo. Bike went well never passed by anyone in my age group. I need to get faster though. Left hamstring still hurts when I push the bike hard. I need to get this fixed. The pain is the same as the Tawas race last year. It has to be a bike fit problem. I tried to move my seat forward and that seem to help. I may be a little to stretched out in the areo postion.
What would you do differently?:

I have got to fix the Hanmstring problem is the only way I am going to get faster.
