Post race

Warm down:

Hung around for 4 hours to get my 2nd place AG award. MIssed 1st place in AG by 5 sec. 35th of 193 overall, 23rd of 104 men, 2nd of 13 M 60-64 age group.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

A bit undertrained.

Event comments:

Been considering the Long Course here for years (now the "SB35") but I've never found the time. I'm not crazy about the open streets on the bike course: We were held up repeatedly by traffic.
