Pre-race routine:

For the 2 days before, I increased my calorie intake by about 15% - mostly through carbohydrate. Greek Island Chicken made for great lunches for 3 days. The night before consisted of an Asian chicken dish with plenty of brown rice. Taper for 3 days left me with muscles that felt really full.

Comments:

Must learn bike mechanics and maintain my bike better. No problems, but chain needs oiling.
Post race
Warm down:

Lots of good food at the finish. Past salad, mac and cheese, hot dogs, burgers, donuts - mmmmm...

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I need to continue my interval training and improve my uphill pace, especially over 7000 feet of vertical. Overall, I'm happy.

Event comments:

Incredibly well run. Great volunteers, great aid stations, very well marked route. This could not have been a better run event.
