Whoa.. need to practice more on the hills. I seriously underestimated the hills on this course. Also, I need a new bike. The heavy hybrid just doesn't cut it.

Practice hills. Get a road bike.

Had some peanuts & raisins to eat in the transition, but in the rush forgot all about it... would later regret that.
What would you do differently?:

Changing shoes faster. Remember to eat.

Comments:

My legs were done from the hilly bike ride. It was all I could do to finish.
What would you do differently?:

Train hills on the bike so when I get to the run it doesn't suck so much.

I was passing others who were saying, "Good job, 587" (that was my race number). People were cheering me on. These were the nicest people I have ever been around!
