Comments: I felt very good about the results of this, my first, triathlon. Finished 2/12 in my age group; might have been first if I hadn't stopped to give someone my tube kit. Finished in the top 25% overall. I was within seconds of all three target splits with no pacing assistance (GPS watch, bike computer, stop watch, etc), using only "Perceived Effort" to regulate my output. Surprised with how competitive my run time was, especially given my minimal preparation in this discipline (40 miles in 8 weeks). I think that was indicative of a reasonably smart overall race plan that was well executed.
