After first turn bouy...had to sight DIRECTLY into the sun. Never saw 2nd turn bouy until about 50 ft from it. FOrtunetly someone in front of me did. Our wave was very big and had no place to go the first 4-5 minutes until the first turn. Very hard to get any momentum.

First 1/2 mile uphill with speedbumps. Blah. Felt good on the rest of the course. Last hill in the palisades i should have spun instead of getting out of the saddle. Last 1/2 backin into T2 was over jawbreaking speedbumps.

Felt like I was jogging in mud until mile 2 when my legs felt great and then turned my best mile in mile 3. The hills were brutal. Wasn't more than 50ft of flat road.

Awesome job out there.  You had a super bike and run.  Your time on those hills is pretty impressive. 

When is your next race?
