I was in second up till about a mile left when this guy flew past me. He was a cross country runner.
What would you do differently?:

Slow down on the bike so that my heart rate isn't flying when the run starts. Had I had that extra minute that I slowed down for I may have gotten second.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

HR control issues.

Event comments:

I love the Tri Blue Sky team. All of their events are high quality.
