New goggles worked great, it is nice to actually be able to see what is in front of you.

Nothing.

Strap ended up flipping inside-out and made for a hell of a time getting my foot in the shoe.

Look down to make sure foot is entering shoe correctly.
Bike
  • 1h 01m 7s
  • 23 miles
  • 22.58 mile/hr
Comments:

Too much water on the bike... thus cramping on the run.

Gears still weren’t quite "right" after the switch over to race-wheels, might have to make a "bike shop adjustment" mandatory before race day.

  • 00m 51s
Run
  • 46m 43s
  • 6.21 miles
  • 07m 31s  min/mile
Comments:

Not happy with run, but with hill/heat combo, I'll take it.

Without cramping issues at miles 3+ could have finished significantly stronger. Had to have been as a result of the water on the bike. Nutrition is a pain in the ass.
