The swim went pretty well, though I kept veering off course. I couldn't seem to swim straight this morning.

Comments:

I had hoped to ride a bit faster on this course since it was so flat and there was so little wind. Overall, not the strongest bike split but my training miles have been down quite a bit in the past month.
What would you do differently?:

Train more.

Comments:

I was very happy with my run. With the added distance on the course I was able to run 6:33 miles. This was a PR for me and I was able to catch a number of people on the run and move up to 3rd in my age group.

Nice race. The only thing that seems out of place was T2 - was it a long run, or did you have a problem? Even with that though, fabulous time for an Oly. Great work getting the podium finish!!
