My right calf cramped up on mile 14. I had to get off my bike and try to walk it out. After I got back on, I couldn't get up to a consitent cadence or speed because it hurt for the remainder of the race. I was also going against a stong head wind when this happened.
What would you do differently?:

Get my bike fit.
Get more potassium.
Train more on hills

I jumped off the bike too early which cost me a few seconds on my bike time.

My calf was killing me, so I would jog and then walk. This killed my time.

Well, it was the "Flying Bagel", so I had a bagel with Peanut Butter
