good start with no anxiety or breathing problems. Got in a rhythm pretty quickly. Passed lots of people. Exit was a little slow due to large wave after standing up.

have my wetsuit in the truck in case they declared it wetsuit legal like they did

Put on sunglasses first then helmet strap was twisted by glasses. Shoes were a little flat by the time I tried to put my feet in. Need to go back to Sidi shoes.

Put on helmet and tape glasses to bike and put them on later after I get going. Forgot to do that.

One sports drink in aero bottle and one water bottle were just about right. Had one gel just before bridge and one gel just before finish. Slight head wind going out and slight tail wind coming back. Slowest portion was going North into the park. Fastest section was from the park to the finish.

Forgot to unstrap shoes early so had to stop to get off bike.

Undo shoes and get feet out so I could do the running dismount that I had practiced. Such a shame and a waste of time that I had to completely stop to get off bike.

Same old thing. Slowest part of race. Really need to learn how to run faster. Thank goodness for the lady who came along in the last 2.5 miles to pace me. Finished with fasted 2 miles at end.

Run faster in training.

Slow running, short legs.
